Exegesis
The divine name YHWH {יְהוָה | ye-ho-vah} anchors the petition delivered through immakh {עִמָּךְ | im-makh} ‘with you’. English punctuation recreates the Hebrew asyndeton and parallel structure without losing the force of the commands or the concluding benediction.
Root and etymology

In context — 1 Chronicles 22:16
Gold, silver, bronze, and iron—there is no number . Rise up and do the work, and may the LORD be with you.
