Exegesis
The conjunction ve’et {וְאֶת־ | wə-ʾeṯ} signals a new object, ha’am {הָעָם֙ | hā-ʿām} ‘the people,’ modified by the participle hayoshev {הַיֹּשֵׁ֣ב | ha-yō-šêḇ} ‘dwelling’ with the locative suffix aleha {עָלֶ֔יהָ | ʿā-lê-hā} ‘on it.’
In context — Numbers 13:18
And you shall see the land —what it is—and the people who dwell on it, whether they are strong or weak , few or many.
