Exegesis
The final clause wə-nātān YHWH {וְנָתַן יְהוָה | wə-nātān YHWH} ‘and the LORD will give’, followed by bə-yād-hammelekh {בְּיַד־הַמֶּלֶךְ | bə-yād-hammeleḵ} ‘into the hand of the king’, employs the idiom for divine deliverance. This sequence of vav-consecutive forms and imperatives underscores YHWH’s sovereign initiative.
