Exegesis
The second clause uses the Hiphil perfect hifgati {הִפְגַעְתִּי | hif-gaʿ-tî} ‘I have caused to entreat’ with bekha {בְּךָ | bə-ḵā} ‘in you’ and the temporal phrases be-et raah {בְּעֵת רָעָה | bə-ʿêt rā-ʿāh} ‘in the time of evil’ and u-ve-et tsarah {וּבְעֵת צָרָה | û-ḇə-ʿêt ṣā-rāh} ‘and in time of distress’.
In context — Jeremiah 15:11
The LORD said, "Surely I will set you free ; surely I will cause the enemy to plead with you in the time of evil and in the time of distress."
