Exegesis
The verse opens with the demonstrative vezzeh {וְזֶה | wə-zeh} ‘and this’ linked to lekha {לְךָ | lə-kha} ‘for you’, introducing ha’ot {הָאוֹת | hā-’ōṯ} ‘the sign’ as a prophetic marker.
In context — 2 Kings 19:29
And this will be the sign for you: you shall eat what grows by itself in this year, and in the second year what springs up thereafter , but in the third year sow and reap, plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
