Exegesis

The sequence of בְּ / וּבְּ phrases—be-chayyat ha-sadeh {בְּחַיַּ֥ת הַשָּׂדֶ֖ה | bə-ḥayyat haśśāḏeh} ‘with the beast of the field’ and u-ve-of ha-shamayim {וּבְע֣וֹף הַשָּׁמָ֑יִם | ūḇə-ʿôp̄ haššāmayim} ‘and with the bird of the heavens’—extends the scope from humans to land animals and birds, creating a widening ecological sweep (land and sky).

In context — Hosea 4:3

Therefore the land will go into mourning, and every inhabitant in it will wither , together with the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens; even the fish of the sea will be gathered up.
