Exegesis
The verse consists of a series of coordinated promise clauses beginning with vehifreti {וְהִפְרֵתִ֤י | wə-hiprētî} ‘and I will make fruitful’ and continuing with unetatikhah {וּנְתַתִּ֖יךָ | ūnə-ṯattî-ḵā} ‘and I will give you’, both employing the weqatal verb form to convey resolved future divine action.
In context — Genesis 17:6
I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will bring nations from you, and kings will come from you.
