Exegesis
The term neʾum {נְאֻ֥ם | nə-ʾûm} ‘oracle declaration’ heralds the divine pronouncement, which includes the titles ha-adon {הָאָד֖וֹן | hā-ʾā-dôn} ‘the Lord’ and YHWH tsevaot {יְהוָ֥ה צְבָאֽוֹת | Yə-hō-wāh ṣĕ-vā-ʾōt} ‘LORD of hosts’, underscoring authoritative judgement. The Hebrew VSO order foregrounds divine agency; the English SVO structure preserves clarity while maintaining the sequence of divine titles.
In context — Isaiah 19:4
And I will deliver Egypt into the hand of a cruel master, and a fierce king will rule over them; this is the declaration of the Lord the LORD of hosts .
