Exegesis
The closing apposition yelidei ha-anak {יְלִידֵ֖י הָעֲנָֽק | yə-lî-ḏê hā-ʿă-nāq} ‘those born of the Anak’ restates the ancestry in a second, tighter construct phrase, reinforcing that the removals target a particular lineage. English punctuation with dashes effectively mirrors the Hebrew’s right-branching apposition (group description → named list → lineage restatement) while keeping the names clear.
