Exegesis
The closing prepositional phrase be'ozneikhem {בְּאָזְנֵיכֶֽם | bə-ʾāz-nê-kem} ‘in your ears’ functions adverbially, pressing for direct, personal reception rather than distant hearing. English renders the Hebrew verbal intensification with an adverbial reinforcement (“indeed,” “carefully”) while keeping the two objects and the final “ears” phrase to preserve the verse’s rhetorical insistence.
In context — Job 13:17
Hear, indeed hear, my word , and my declaration , in your ears.
