The construct kol-ziknei Yehudah ve-yerushalayim {כָּל־זִקְנֵ֥י יְהוּדָ֖ה וִירוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם | kol-ziq-nê ye-hū-dāh və-ye-rū-ša-lā-yim} ‘all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem’ unites two regions under a distributive quantifier. English reorders to SVO for clarity while preserving coordination and emphasis.
