Exegesis
The independent pronoun ʾănî {אֲנִ֤י | ʾănî} self-identifies the LORD, followed by ḥeləqqəḵā {חֶלְקְךָ֙ | ḥeləqqəḵā} and wənacḥălāṯəḵā {וְנַחֲלָ֣תְךָ | wənacḥălāṯəḵā}, which function as merismatic terms reinforcing divine ownership.
In context — Numbers 18:20
And the LORD said to Aaron, “You will have no inheritance in their land nor any portion among them; I am your inheritance among the sons of Israel.”
