Exegesis
The construct phrase dar-kə-kem {דַּרְכְּכֶ֖ם | dar-kə-kem} ‘your way’ is specified by the relative clause ʾă-šer tēleḵū-vāh {אֲשֶׁ֥ר תֵּֽלְכוּ־בָֽהּ | ʾă-šer tēleḵū-vāh} ‘which you are going in’, emphasizing the path held in view. The paratactic structure without conjunction underscores immediacy and divine accompaniment.
In context — Judges 18:6
And the priest said to them, “Go in peace. The road you are taking lies before the LORD .”
