Exegesis
The participle qō·rê {קֹרֵא | qō·rê} “calling” with ʾănî {אֲנִי | ʾănî} “I” creates an immediate summons to earth and heavens (ʾă·lê·hem {אֲלֵיהֶם | ʾă·lê·hem}), which respond in imperfect ya·ʿam·dû {יַעַמְדוּ | ya·ʿam·dû} “stand” plus adverb yaḥ·dāw {יַחְדָּו | yaḥ·dāw} “together,” underlining unified obedience. English retains “My hand…My right hand” to mirror the Hebrew balance and preserves the sequence of divine action and cosmic response.
