Exegesis

The final verbal form yorishennu {יוֹרִשֶׁ֥נּוּ | yô-rí-šen-nû} ‘he will drive it out’ is followed by el {אֵֽל | ʾēl} ‘God,’ an end-position subject that climactically identifies the true agent of the dispossession. English renders the implied subject explicitly as “God” to match the Hebrew’s delayed subject placement while preserving the verse’s rhetorical punch.
