Exegesis

The closing formula ki ani YHWH dibbarti {כִּי אֲנִי יְהוָה דִּבַּרְתִּי | kî ʾă-nî YHWH dib-bar-tî} ‘for I, the LORD, have spoken’ functions as a legal-declarative clause. The translation shifts Hebrew VSO order to English SVO and renders infinitival adjuncts as purpose phrases to preserve emphatic structure.

You shall be delivered to the fire for consumption ; your blood will be in the midst of the land; you will not be remembered, for I, the LORD , have spoken.
