Exegesis

A contrasting vav vaani {וַאֲנִי | va-ʾa-nî} introduces the prophet’s own cohortative eeseh {אֶעֱשֶׂה | ʾe-ʿā-sēh} and venatati {וְנָתַתִּי | wə-nā-ṭa-tî}, paralleling the earlier commands.

In context1 Kings 18:23

And let them give us two bulls , and let them choose one bull for themselves and cut it in pieces and place it on the wood , but let them not put fire on it. And I will prepare the other bull and place it on the wood, but I will not put fire on it.
