Exegesis
The scope extends to ba-goyim {בַּגּוֹיִם | ba-gō-yim} ‘among the nations,’ and the coordinating vav introduces the Piel imperfect azammer {אֲזַמֵּֽר | ʾă-zam-mêr} ‘I will sing psalms’ after the prepositional phrase u-le-shimkha {וּלְשִׁמְךָ֖ | u-lə-šim-ḵā} ‘to Your name.’ The Hifil stem conveys celebratory declaration, while the Piel stem intensifies the musical worship. The English translations preserve the cause-and-effect link, universal scope, and parallel acts of praise.
