Exegesis
The object hazalzallim {הַזַּלְזַלִּים | haz-zal-zal-lîm} ‘sprigs/shoots’ is first targeted “with” bammazmerot {בַּמַּזְמֵרוֹת | bam-maz-mê-rôṯ} ‘pruning hooks’, and then ve'et-hanetishot {וְאֶת־הַנְּטִישׁוֹת | wə-ʾet-han-nə-ṭî-šôṯ} marks a second object for paired Hiphil verbs, hesir and hetaz, which together intensify the sense of thorough removal. The piling up of pruning actions and vine imagery functions as a metaphor of judgment that interrupts growth at the critical moment before the harvest.
In context — Isaiah 18:5
For before the harvest, when the blossom is complete and the unripe grape is ripening, it will be a bud; He will cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and the tendrils He will remove and lop off.
