Exegesis
A second clause, coordinated by vehayah {וְהָיָה | wə-hā-yāh} ‘and will be’, presents a verbless nominal clause with yehovah {יְהוָה | yə-hō-wāh} ‘the LORD’ as predicate nominative to the construct noun mivtacho {מִבְטַחוֹ | miḇ-ta-ḥō} ‘his trust’. This synonymous parallelism intensifies the theme of divine security by restating the act of trusting as the very essence of the believer’s confidence.
In context — Jeremiah 17:7
Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD , and whose confidence rests in the LORD.
