Exegesis
The verb netativ {נְתַתִּ֥יו | nĕ-ṯat-tî-yōw} ‘I have given’ directs the object to la-esh {לָאֵשׁ | lā-’êš} ‘the fire’ for the purpose of le-okhlah {לְאָכְלָה | lə-’ō-ḵlâ} ‘consuming’.
A parallel ken natati {כֵּן נָתַתִּי | kên nā-ṯat-tî} ‘so I have given’ repeats this construction with et-yoshvei Yerushalayim {אֶת-יֹשְׁבֵי יְרוּשָׁלָם | ’et–yō-šê-wê yĕ-rū-šā-lā-yim} ‘the inhabitants of Jerusalem’, reinforcing the judicial verdict through chiastic repetition. The formal rendering adheres closely to Hebrew structure, while the dynamic translation clarifies the metaphor in natural English.
