Exegesis
Each imperative governs a particular object: ʾîlānāʾ {אִ֚ילָנָא | ʾî-lā-nāʾ} “the tree,” ʿănāp̄ôhî {עֲנָפ֔וֹהִי | ʿă-nā-p̄ō-hî} “its branches,” ʿōp̄yēh {עָפְיֵ֔הּ | ʿop̄-yēh} “its foliage,” and ʾinbēh {אִנְבֵּ֔הּ | ʾin-bēh} “its fruit.” The repeated third masculine singular suffix -ôhî ties all these elements back to the single image of the tree, emphasizing that every aspect of its growth and provision is to be removed.
In context — Daniel 4:14
He called out with a mighty voice , and thus he said, “Hew down the tree and cut off its branches; shake off its foliage and scatter its fruit. Let the beasts flee from under it, and the birds from its branches.”
