Exegesis
The shift to divine action occurs with venatati {וְנָתַתִּ֤י | wə-nā-taṯ-tî}, presenting mishpat {מִשְׁפָּ֔ט | miš-pāṭ} as the judicial standard, which is mirrored in human judgment ushefatukh {וּשְׁפָט֖וּךְ | û-šə-p̄ā-ṭū-ḵ} and bemishpetehem {בְּמִשְׁפְּטֵיהֶֽם | bə-miš-pə-ṭê-hem}, highlighting adjudication by foreign measures.
