Exegesis
The prepositional phrase kîgmûl {כִגְמֻל | kîgmûl} ‘recompense’ with the prefix kî- ‘according to’ plus alav {עָלָיו | ‘alāyw} ‘upon him’ specifies the expected measure of reciprocity.
In context — 2 Chronicles 32:25
But Hezekiah did not return according to the recompense due him, because his heart was proud ; so wrath came upon him and upon Judah and Jerusalem.
