Exegesis
It is followed by the construct phrase dvar-YHWH {דְבַר־יְהוָ֗ה | dəbar Yəhōwāh} ‘word of the LORD’, with asher {אֲשֶׁ֨ר | ăšer} ‘which’ introducing the relative clause tied to the perfect verb dibber {דִּבֶּ֤ר | dibber} ‘he spoke’.
In context — 2 Kings 15:12
This is the word of the LORD which He spoke to Jehu, saying: ‘Sons of the fourth generation will sit for you on the throne of Israel.’ And so it came to pass.
