Exegesis
The final construct chain û-nəḏārēḵā tᵉšallêm {וּנְדָרֶ֥יךָ תְשַׁלֵּֽם | û-nəḏārēḵā tᵉšallêm} “and your vows you will fulfill” combines a noun in construct state with a Piel imperfect, underscoring the obligation that follows divine engagement. The repeated vav conjunctions preserve Hebrew parataxis and emphasize the sequence of human action, divine reaction, and human enactment. This structure is mirrored in English by maintaining the “and” transitions without introducing subordinate clauses.
Root and etymology
