Exegesis
Each imperative is linked to a locale—halləvanon {הַלְּבָנוֹן֙ | hal-lə-ḇā-nōn} “Lebanon”, uvabashan {וּבַבָּשָׁ֖ן | û-va-bā-šān} “Bashan”, and meavarim {מֵֽעֲבָרִים | mē-ʿă-ḇā-rīm} “Abarim”—defining the scope of the lament. The conjunction vav marks coordination, not sequence.
In context — Jeremiah 22:20
Go up to Lebanon and cry out ; in Bashan lift up your voice; and cry out from Abarim, for all your lovers have been destroyed .
