Exegesis
The vav-consecutive Nifal perfect vene’etar {וְנֶעְתַּ֥ר | wə-neʿ-tar} ‘and He will be entreated’ reflects the divine response to prayer, and the final urefa’am {וּרְפָאָֽם | û-rə-p̄ā-ʾām} ‘and He will heal them’ completes the parallelism. The structure and repetition of vav-consecutive forms, along with the double infinitive absolutes, highlight the balance of divine justice and compassion.
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.
