Exegesis
The relative clause ʼăšer ʻāzəvû {אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָזְב֔וּ | ʼăšer ʻāzəvû} ‘which they forsook’ governs the causal mip̄nê bənê yisrāʼēl {מִפְּנֵ֖י בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל | mip̄nê bənê yisrāʼēl} ‘because of the sons of Israel’.
In context — Isaiah 17:9
On that day, his fortified cities will be like a forsaken place in the forest and like a topmost branch which they abandoned because of the children of Israel. And it will be desolation.
