Exegesis
The verse begins with the direct object marker et-mishpatai {אֶת־מִשְׁפָּטַי | ʾeṯ-mish-pā-ṭāy} ‘my judgments’, which is the object of the imperative taʿă-śû {תַּעֲשׂ֛וּ | taʿă-śû} ‘you shall do’.
In context — Leviticus 18:4
You shall do my judgments and you shall keep my statutes, to walk in them. I am the LORD your God .
