Exegesis
The second cohortative odi’ah {אוֹדִ֖יעָה | ʾōḏîʿāh} governs devarai etkhem {דְבָרַ֣י אֶתְכֶֽם | dəḇārāy ʾetḵem}, denoting revelation to the recipients. The Hebrew structure creates a two-part if/then construct emphasizing human response and divine initiative.
In context — Proverbs 1:23
If you return at my reproof , behold, I will pour out my spirit to you; I will make my words known to you.
