Exegesis

Finally, the clauses introduced by ve-shem {וְשֵׁ֤ם | wə-šēm} ‘and the name’ specify haechad Botsets {הָֽאֶחָד בּוֹצֵ֔ץ | hā-’ě-ḥăd Bō-ṣěts} and ve-shem haechad Seneh {וְשֵׁ֥ם הָאֶחָ֖ד סֶֽנֶּה | wə-šēm hā-’ě-ḥăd Se-ne-h} ‘the one Bozez’ and ‘the one Seneh’. The alternation between the relative clause and the listing of geographic features, along with the parallel phrasing, preserves the Hebrew narrative focus and symmetry in translation, while adapting the VSO order to natural English SVO.
