Exegesis
The verse employs a triad of Qal imperfect verbs to depict ongoing divine intervention: yishlach {יִשְׁלַח | yiš·lā·ḥ} ‘he sent’, yiqqacheni {יִקָּחֵנִי | yiq·qā·ḥê·nî} ‘he took me’, and yamšeni {יַמְשֶׁנִי | yam·šê·nî} ‘he drew me’.
In context — 2 Samuel 22:17
He reached down from on high and took me; He drew me out of many waters .
