Exegesis
The coordinating ve-‘alāy {וְעָלַ֗י | wə-ʿalāy} ‘and to me’ introduces a protasis in which yāḇōʾ {יָב֛וֹא | yāḇōʾ} ‘would come’ and the bound relative clause ašer-yihyêh-lō-rîḇ {אֲשֶֽׁר־יִהְיֶה־לּוֹ־רִ֥יב | ʾăšer-yihyêh-lō-rîḇ} ‘who has a dispute’ sets a distributive scenario with kol-ʾîš {כָּל־אִ֛ישׁ | kol-ʾîš} ‘every man’.

In context — 2 Samuel 15:4
