Exegesis
The Qal active participle ʾôsip̄əḵā {אֹסִפְךָ | ʾôsip̄əḵā} and the Niphal perfect wəneʾsāptā {וְנֶאֱסַפְתָּ | wəneʾsāptā} create a parallelism of gathering themes.
In context — 2 Kings 22:20
Therefore, behold, I am gathering you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your graves in peace . Your eyes will not see all the evil that I am bringing upon this place. And they conveyed the report to the king.
