Exegesis
The consecutive waw on veyasaf {וְיָסַף | wə·yā·saf} signals sequential action, introducing chamishit kesef-er-ke-kha {חֲמִשִּׁית כֶּסֶף־עֶרְכְּךָ | ḥa·mî·šîṯ ke·sep̄-ʿer·kəḵā} ‘a fifth of the silver of your valuation’ as a construct chain.
In context — Leviticus 27:19
And if the one who has dedicated the field redeems it, then he shall add a fifth of the silver of your valuation upon it, and it shall stand for him.
