Exegesis
The Qal jussive yehi {יְהִ֥י | yəhî} pairs with the noun pachad {פַּֽחַד | paḥaḏ} to form a call for reverential fear of YHWH {יְהוָ֖ה | Yəhōwāh}, followed by the prepositional phrase alei-khem {עֲלֵיכֶ֑ם | ʿălêḵem}.
In context — 2 Chronicles 19:7
Now then, let the fear of the LORD rest on you. Be careful and act, for with the LORD our God there is no injustice, no partiality, and no taking of bribes.
