Exegesis
In the next clause, veshavu {וְשָׁבוּ֙ | wə-šā-vû} ‘and they will return’ takes ad {עַד־ | ʿad} ‘to’ with YHWH {יְהוָ֔ה | Yə-hō-wāh} as its goal, marking repentance.
In context — Isaiah 19:22
And the LORD will strike Egypt, striking and healing; and they will return to the LORD, and He will be entreated for them and heal them.
