Exegesis

Within the speech, the double imperative lekh {לֵךְ | lēk} ‘go’ plus haviem {הָבִיאֵם | hā-vîʾēm} ‘bring them’ emphasizes urgency, and the prepositional phrase el ha-ir {אֶל־הָעִיר | ʾel hā-ʾîr} ‘to the city’ specifies the destination. English renders Hebrew V-S-O into S-V-O, preserving the force of the imperatives.

In context1 Samuel 20:40

And Jonathan gave his weapons to the boy and said to him, “Go, carry them to the city.”
