Exegesis
The second vav-consecutive unetatikh {וּנְתַתִּ֕יךְ | û-nə-ṯat-tîḵ} ‘and I will give you’ introduces the consequence, with dam chemah ve-kinah {דַּ֥ם חֵמָ֖ה וְקִנְאָֽה | dām ḥê-māh wə-qin-’āh} functioning as the noun phrase ‘blood in wrath and jealousy.’ The parallel vav+verb pattern intensifies the pronouncement, shifting from legal standard to enacted judgment and underscoring divine severity.
Root and etymology

“to give”
In context — Ezekiel 16:38
