Exegesis
Two parallel uvəkhāl constructions—uvəkhāl chattootekha {וּבְכָל־חַטֹּאותֶיךָ | ū-və-khāl ḥaṭ-ṭō-′ō-tē-khā} ‘because of all your sins’ and uvəkhāl gevulekha {וּבְכָל־גְּבוּלֶיךָ | ū-və-khāl gə-vu-lē-khā} ‘throughout all your borders’—define respectively the basis and the scope of the judgment. The asyndetic listing with repeated uvəkhāl heightens the sense of total, unmitigated loss.
Root and etymology
g-b-lgə-bal
“boundary, limit”
In context — Jeremiah 15:13
I will give your wealth and your treasures as plunder , without price, because of all your sins and throughout your borders.
