Exegesis
The verbs veyillavu {וְיִלָּוּ | wə-yil-lā-wû} ‘and they will be joined’ and veyishartukha {וִֽישָׁרְת֑וּךָ | wə-šār-tû-kā} ‘and they will serve you’ form a sequential narrative of attachment and service. The repetition of ittakh ‘with you’ emphasizes ongoing association.
In context — Numbers 18:2
And also bring near your brothers, the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, to be with you, and they will be joined to you and serve you; but you and your sons with you shall be before the tent of the testimony .
