Exegesis
The imperfect yittnu {יִתְּנוּ | yittənû} conveys the regular offering action directed to the divine recipient laYHWH {לַיהוָה | lā-YHWH}, marked by the preposition lekha {לְךָ | lᵉ-ḵā}, and the perfect netattim {נְתַתִּים | nəṯattîm} functions as a declarative gift, positioning the human recipient as beneficiary. This progression from quantification through enumeration to relational exchange underscores the sacred economy of giving and priestly entitlement.
In context — Numbers 18:12
All the best of the olive oil, and all the best of the new wine, and all the best of the grain—the firstfruits of what they give to the LORD —I have given to you.
