Exegesis
The infinitive leemor {לֵאמֹר | lê-ʾā-môr} ‘to say’ introduces indirect speech projected by machar yomru {מָחָר יֹאמְרוּ | mā-ḥār yō-ʾəm-rū} ‘tomorrow they will say.’
In context — Joshua 22:24
No, we did this out of concern about a matter, saying, “In days to come your sons may say to our sons, ‘What is it to you and to the LORD , the God of Israel?’”
