Exegesis
The infinitive absolute halokh {הָלֹךְ | hā-lôkh} ‘go’ together with the perfect veamadta {וְעָֽמַדְתָּ | wə-‘ā-mad-tā} ‘and stand’ forms an emphatic imperative.
In context — Jeremiah 17:19
Thus the LORD said to me, “Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, the one by which the kings of Judah enter and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.”
