Exegesis
The second vav-consecutive vayomer introduces the imperative shimu {שִׁמְעוּ | shi-mu} ‘hear’, directed to amim kulam {עַמִּים כֻּלָּם | a-mim kul-lam}, universal audiences, thus linking conditional prophecy with a public summons to witness divine truth.
In context — 1 Kings 22:28
And Micaiah said, “If you return in peace, the LORD has not spoken by me.” Then he said, “Hear, all peoples!”
