Exegesis

The prepositional phrase le-qol YHWH elohêkha {לְק֣וֹל יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ | lə-qōl Yə-hō-wāh ʾĕ-lō-hê-khā} ‘to the voice of the LORD your God’ functions as the direct object, anchoring divine authority.

The conclusion, ki ani YHWH ro-pe-e-kha {כִּי אֲנִי יְהוָה רֹפְאֶךָ | kî ʾă-nî Yə-hō-wāh rō-pʾē-khā} ‘for I am the LORD your healer’, grounds the promise in divine identity and covenantal restoration.
