Exegesis
The repetition šā-nā šā-nā {שָׁנָ֥ה שָׁנָֽה | šā-nā šā-nā} employs Hebrew parallelism to denote annual recurrence. In English translation, the phrase becomes a participial phrase while iterative repetition is rendered as “year by year” or “Each year.”
In context — Deuteronomy 14:22
You shall surely tithe all the produce of your seed that comes forth from the field, year by year.
