Exegesis
The imperative kumi {ק֥וּמִי | kû-mî} ‘arise’ introduces movement, followed by the cohortative venelekha {וְנֵלֵ֖כָה | wə-nê-lê-ḵā} ‘let us go’, marking mutual intent.
In context — Judges 19:28
And he said to her, “Arise , and let us go.” But there was no answering . Then he took her and placed her upon the donkey, and the man stood up and went to his place.
