Exegesis
The result clause wə-ye-da-ʿû kol-ha-ʾā-reṣ {וְיֵֽדְעוּ֙ כָּל־הָאָרֶץ | wə-ye-da-ʿû kol-ha-ʾā-reṣ} ‘and all the earth will know’ leads into the existential clause kî yēš ʾə-lō-hîm le-yis-ra-ʾêl {כִּ֛י יֵשׁ אֱלֹהִים לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל | kî yēš ʾə-lō-hîm le-yis-ra-ʾêl} ‘that there is God in Israel,’ presenting a universal theological climax. The English rendering preserves Hebrew immediacy and sequential action while maintaining clarity and impact.
In context — 1 Samuel 17:46
This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and remove your head from upon you. And this day I will give the bodies of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the heavens so that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
