The relative clause ʾasher lo-shamau avoteinu {אֲשֶׁר לֹא־שָׁמְעוּ אֲבֹתֵינוּ | ʾă-šer lo-ša-ma-ʿû ʾā-bō-tê-nû} assigns corporate culpability to the fathers’ failure to heed covenant instruction, leading into the purpose infinitive laasot kəkol hakatav aleinu {לַעֲשׂוֹת כְּכָל־הַכָּתוּב עָלֵינוּ | la-ʿă-śôṯ kə-kol ha-qā-tūv ʿā-lê-nû} “to do according to all that is written concerning us.”
In context — 2 Kings 22:13
Go, inquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that has been found; for great is the wrath of the LORD which is kindled against us because our fathers did not listen to the words of this book, to do according to all that is written concerning us.
