Exegesis
The vav consecutive in vahachinota {וַהֲכִינ֥וֹתָ | wa-hă-kī-nō-ṯā} links the subsequent volitional act, and the infinitive lidrosh {לִדְרֹשׁ | li-ḏrôš} ‘to seek’ denotes purpose toward ha-Elohim {הָאֱלֹהִים | hā-ʾĕ-lō-hîm}.
In context — 2 Chronicles 19:3
Yet good things have been found in you: you have removed the Asherah poles from the land, and you have set your heart to seek God .
