Exegesis
The Vav consecutive way-yā-peq {וַיָּפֶק | way-yā-peq} ‘and he brings forth’ shifts to result, with rā-ṣōn {רָצוֹן | rā-ṣōn} ‘favor’ as its object and mê-Yə-hō-wāh {מֵיְהוָה | mê-Yə-hō-wāh} ‘from the LORD’ specifying the divine source. The Hebrew verb–object–verb–object order constructs a parallelism, and the vav-consecutive marks the outcome of finding a wife.
In context — Proverbs 18:22
Whoever finds a wife finds good , and obtains favor from the LORD .
