Exegesis
The phrase hinnakh harah {הִנָּךְ הָרָה | hinnākh harāh} ‘you will conceive’ functions as an existential perfect with second person feminine suffix, immediately followed by the vav consecutive in ve-yoldet {וְיֹלַדְתְּ | vĕyô-lăḏt} ‘and you will bear’ to affirm certainty.
In context — Judges 13:5
For behold, you will conceive and bear a son, and a razor shall not come upon his head, for the boy will be a Nazirite to God from the womb; and he will begin to deliver Israel from the hand of the Philistines.
