Exegesis
The verse begins with the fronted prepositional phrase velakh {וְלָךְ | wə-lāḵ} “and to you,” which throws focus onto the king as the recipient of the coming actions before the verb appears.
In context — Daniel 4:25
And you they will drive away from among men, and your dwelling, your habitation, will be with the beasts of the field, and they will make you eat grass like oxen, and they will drench you with the dew of heaven, and seven times will pass over you, until you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of mankind, and He gives it to whomever He wills .
