Exegesis
The final phrase ve’el kol-am ha’arets {וְאֶל כָּל־עַם הָאָרֶץ | wə-ʾel kôl ʿam hā-ʾā-reṣ} ‘and to all the people of the land’ broadens the address to the entire nation. The Hebrew verb-subject-object order is rendered in English subject-verb-object, and the repeated prepositions are consolidated into a coherent series while retaining emphatic listing.
In context — Daniel 9:6
And we did not listen to your servants , the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land .
