Exegesis
The repeated prepositional phrase ve-ʿal {וְעַל־ | wə-ʿal} ‘and concerning’ structures a polysyndetic parallelism that enumerates four groups—sons (habanim {הַבָּנִים֙ | hab-bānîm}), daughters (habanot {הַבָּנוֹת֔ | hab-bānôt}), mothers (immotam {אִמֹּתָ֞ם | ʾimmōṯām}), and fathers (avotam {אֲבוֹתָ֛ם | ʾăḇōṯām})—each paired with participles hayillodim {הַיִּלּוֹדִים֖ | hay-yillōḏîm}, hayoldot {הַיֹּלְד֣וֹת | hay-yōləḏôt}, and hamolidim {הַמּוֹלִדִים֥ | ham-môliḏîm} to specify ongoing conditions of being born, bearing, and begetting.
In context — Jeremiah 16:3
For thus says the LORD concerning the sons and the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bear them, and concerning their fathers who beget them in this land .
