Exegesis
The closing idiom yamim al-yamim {יָמִים עַל־יָמִים | yāmîm ʿal-yāmîm} ‘days upon days’ functions adverbially to stress ongoing duration, naturally rendered as “day after day.”
In context — 2 Chronicles 21:15
And you will have many diseases, with a sickness from your bowels , until your bowels come out from the disease, day after day.
