Exegesis
Beshmo {בְּשָׁמְע֥וֹ | bə-šā-mə-ʿô} ‘in his hearing’ functions as an infinitive construct clause conveying causation, governing et telunoteikhem al YHWH {אֶת־תְּלֻנֹּתֵיכֶ֖ם עַל־יְהוָ֑ה | ʾeṯ tə-lun-nō-ṯê-khem ʿal Yə-hō-wāh} ‘your complaints against the LORD,’ where ʿal marks adversarial direction.
In context — Exodus 16:7
And in the morning you will see the glory of the LORD because He has heard your complaints against the LORD; and who are we that you complain against us?
