Exegesis
The clause hūʾ yaggīḏ lāḵ māh-yihyēh la-nāʿār {הוּא יַגִּיד לָךְ מַה־יִהְיֶה לַנָּעַר | hūʾ yag-gīḏ lāḵ māh-yih-hyēh la-nāʿ-ār} forms a subject-verb-indirect-object-result structure, literally ‘he will tell to you what will be to the boy’. In English the order is shifted to SVO for clarity while preserving the Hebrew sequence.
In context — 1 Kings 14:3
And you shall take in your hand ten loaves of bread, and cakes , and a jar of honey, and go to him; he will tell you what will happen to the boy .
