Exegesis
The verse opens with the conjunction ve'asah {וְעָשָׂ֞ה | wə-ʿā-śāh} ‘and he will do’, followed by the prepositional phrase lemivtsrei ma’uzzim {לְמִבְצְרֵי מָֽעֻזִּים | lə-miḇ-ṣə-rê mā-ʿu-zzîm} ‘to the fortresses of strongholds’, which functions as the primary object.
In context — Daniel 11:39
And he will act against the fortresses of strongholds with a foreign god ; whomever he acknowledges he will increase with honor, and he will make them rule over many, and he will divide the land for a price.
