Exegesis
The paired verbs himmēs {הִמֵּ֣ס | himmēs} ‘he causes to melt’ and yimmas {יִמָּ֑ס | yimmas} ‘he will melt’ in Hiphil and Nifal imperfects form an idiomatic intensification.
In context — 2 Samuel 17:10
Then even the man of valor , whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will surely melt away; for all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man , and that the sons of valor who are with him.
