Exegesis
The Qal imperfect eshpot {אֶשְׁפֹּט | ʾeš-pōṭ} ‘I will judge’ then addresses the addressee directly with the suffix otakh {אֹתָךְ | ʾō-thā-kh} ‘you.’ This Hebrew structure foregrounds place of origin and the certainty of divine judgment, preserved in English by maintaining both locative references and the layered verbal commands.
