Exegesis
The direct object marker et highlights both kermecha {כַּרְמְךָ | kar-mĕkā} ‘your vineyard’ and karmi {כַּרְמִי | kar-mî} ‘my vineyard’, underscoring personal ownership.

And he spoke to her, “Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite and said to him, ‘Give me your vineyard for money, or if you prefer, I will give you a vineyard in its place’; but he said, ‘I will not give you my vineyard .’”
