Exegesis
The compound divine title YHWH Eloheikha {יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ | Yəhōwāh ʾĕlōhêkā} appears twice to reinforce divine promise, while the relative pronoun asher {אֲשֶׁר | ʾăšer} marks the nations as recipients of the gift expressed by noten {נוֹתֵן | nōṯēn}.
In context — Deuteronomy 19:1
When the LORD your God destroys the nations whom the LORD your God gives to you, and you dispossess them and dwell in their cities and in their houses.
