Exegesis
The final clause is coordinated with û- {וּ | û-} and presents a forward-looking commitment: nekhaveh {נְחַוֵּֽא | nə-ḥaw-wēʾ} ‘we will make known,’ positioning the promised interpretation as contingent on the king first disclosing the dream.
In context — Daniel 2:4
Then the Chaldeans spoke to the king in Aramaic , “O king , live forever. Say the dream to your servants, and we will make known the interpretation.”
