Exegesis
The construct phrase yeshua‘t YHWH {יְשׁוּעַ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה | yəšûʿāt Yəhōwāh} ‘salvation of the LORD’ is defined by the relative clause asher + ya’aseh {אֲשֶׁר־יַעֲשֶׂה | ʾăšer yaʿăśeh} “which He will do” and temporally framed by hayyom {הַיּ֑וֹם | hayyôm}.
The conjunction ki {כִּ֗י | kî} introduces a causal clause returning to another relative asher + re’item {אֲשֶׁר־רְאִיתֶם | ʾăšer rəʾîṯem} “which you have seen,” with mitsrayim {מִצְרַיִם֙ | Miṣrāyim} and anaphoric hayyom {הַיּ֔וֹם | hayyôm} reinforcing the temporal focus.
In context — Exodus 14:13
And Moses said to the people, “Do not fear. Stand firm and see the salvation of the LORD which He will work for you today . For the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see them again, forever.”
