Exegesis
The imperative kakh-lakh {קַח־לָךְ | qaḥ-lāk} ‘take for yourself’ and the jussive nuance in veyyaʿas {וְיַעַשׂ | wə-yaʿăs} ‘let do’ convey deference to royal prerogative.
In context — 1 Chronicles 21:23
And Ornan said to David, “Take it for yourself, and let my lord the king do what is good in his eyes. See, I have given the oxen for burnt offerings, and the threshing sledges for wood, and the wheat for the grain offering; I have given it all.”
