Exegesis
The relative asher-ani {אֲשֶׁר־אֲנִ֥י | ăšer-ʾănî} ‘that I’ links to the Piel participle meshaleach {מְשַׁלֵּ֖חַ | mešalleaḥ} ‘am sending out’, portraying ongoing divine expulsion.
In context — Leviticus 18:24
Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, for in all these the nations that I am driving out from before you have defiled themselves.
