Exegesis
The adversative ki misham {כִּי מִשָּׁם | kî miš-shām} ‘yet from there’ shifts to the apodosis with et-teqenkha {אֶתְּקֶנְךָ | ʾet-te-qen-kā} ‘I will pluck you’, employing a causative verb form to emphasize forceful removal. English rendering preserves the Hebrew’s oath and conditional structure in idiomatic SVO order while maintaining its vivid figurative language.
In context — Jeremiah 22:24
“As I live,” declares the LORD , “even if Coniah son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, were a signet on my right hand, yet from there I would pluck you off.”
