Exegesis
A parallel clause introduced by ve-im {וְאִם | wə-ʾim} and the imperfect e-kakh {אֶקַּח | ʾeqqaḥ} ‘I take’ broadens the scope via the partitive relative construction mi-kol a-sher lakh {מִכָּל־אֲשֶׁר־לָךְ | mik-kol ʾăšer-lāḵ} ‘from everything that is yours.’
In context — Genesis 14:23
I will not take anything that is yours—not even a thread or a sandal strap—so that you will not be able to say, “I have made Abram rich .”
