Exegesis
Finally, uminhanachal {וּמִן־הַנַּ֖חַל | û-min-han-nā-ḥāl} ‘from the brook’ followed by yishte {יִשְׁתֶּֽה | yiš-teh} ‘he will drink’ indicates habitual action. The repeated parallelism of objects and temporal phrases creates a rhythmic pattern that highlights reliable sustenance through unlikely agents.
