Exegesis
The sequence culminates with veyidatem {וִֽידַעְתֶּם | wî-ḏaʿ-tem} ‘and you will know’ combined with ki ani YHWH {כִּֽי־אֲנִ֥י יְהוָֽה | kî ʾănî Yə-hō-wāh}, which frames the events as a revelation of divine identity. The concatenation of vav-consecutives creates dynamic momentum, and the interplay of causative and passive voices is preserved in translation to reflect the Hebrew structure.

And I will break down the wall which you have plastered with whitewash , and I will bring it to the ground so that its foundation will be uncovered, and it will fall; you will be consumed in its midst, and you will know that I am the LORD .
