Exegesis

A cluster of prepositional phrases elaborates the altered condition of this stump: ûḇeʾĕsûr dî-parzel ûnəḥāš {וּבֶאֱסוּר דִּי־פַרְזֶל וּנְחָשׁ | û-ḇe-ʾĕ-sûr dî-par-zel û-nə-ḥāš} ‘and with a band of iron and bronze’ modifies the stump implicitly, depicting it as bound or encircled without the need for an explicit verb.
