Exegesis
The Qal imperative ten {תֵּ֨ן | tēn} ‘give’ and the Hiphil imperative vehagirem {וְהַגִּרֵם֮ | wə-ha-gî-rēm} ‘pour them out’ frame Israel’s sons as objects of divine wrath, with et-bneihem {אֶת־בְּנֵיהֶם | ʾeṯ-bə-nê-hem} marking the direct object.
In context — Jeremiah 18:21
Therefore, give their sons to the famine , and hand them over to the power of the sword; let their women be bereaved and become widows , and let their men be slain by death; let their young men be struck by the sword in battle.
