Exegesis
The infinitive le-haria {לְהָרִיעַ | lə-hā-rîaʿ} expresses purpose (“in order to sound”), and the fronted phrase aleikhem {עֲלֵיכֶם | ʿă-lê-ḵem} ‘against you’ sharpens the threat by placing the target before the vocative bnei Yisrael {בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל | bə-nê yiś-rā-ʾēl}.
In context — 2 Chronicles 13:12
And look, the God is with us at the head, with His priests and the trumpets of the alarm shout to sound an alarm against you. Sons of Israel, do not fight against the LORD , the God of your fathers, for you will not succeed.
