Exegesis
The coordinated object u-gmalim {וּגְמַלִּים | ū-gma-lîm} follows by vav-consecutive, and the narrative concludes with va-yashuvu Yerushalayim {וַיָּשֻׁבוּ יְרוּשָׁלִָם | way-yā-šū-vû Yə-rū-ša-lā-yim}, indicating the subsequent return. In translation, the construct chain is rendered as a possessive phrase, and each vav-consecutive is preserved with conjunctions to maintain the original sequence and emphasis.
In context — 2 Chronicles 14:15
And they struck down the tents of livestock, seized sheep in abundance and camels, and returned to Jerusalem .
