Exegesis
The double direct object structure gam-otkha {גַּם־אֹתְכָ֥ה | gam-’ōṯ·ḵā} ‘even you’ versus veotah {וְאוֹתָ֥הּ | wə·’ōṯāh} ‘and her’ emphasizes the contrasting fates of Balaam and his donkey.
In context — Numbers 22:33
The donkey saw me and turned aside before me these three times. If she had not turned aside from before me, surely by now I would have killed you, and I would have kept her alive .
