Exegesis

The vav-consecutive u-teru‘at {וּתְרוּעַ֥ת | ū-terûʿāṯ} ‘and shout’ precedes melek {מֶלֶךְ | melek} ‘king’ and bo {בּֽוֹ | bō} ‘in him,’ extending the metaphor of royal triumph. English syntax preserves Hebrew paratactic style and asyndeton to maintain emphasis and cohesion.

In contextNumbers 23:21

He has not beheld iniquity in Jacob, nor has He seen trouble in Israel; the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them.
