Exegesis

The Hitpael participle mitnakkerah {מִתְנַכֵּרָ֔ה | mitnakkērā́h} conveys her assumed disguise, while veanokhi shaluach {וְאָ֣נֹכִ֔י שָׁל֥וּחַ | və’ānóḵî šālûaḥ} denotes mission and tone, concluding with kasheh {קָשָֽׁה | qāšā́} to signal severity of the message.

In context1 Kings 14:6

And it happened, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet coming at the entrance , he said, “Come in, wife of Jeroboam. Why are you disguising yourself? I have been sent to you with a harsh message.”
