Exegesis
The final phrase be’aḥaritkha {בְּאַחֲרִיתֶֽךָ | bə-ʾă-ḥă-rî-ṯê-kha} ‘in your latter end’ narrows the scope to the ultimate conclusion of the addressee’s circumstances. English employs parallel structure and purpose-result syntax to reflect the Hebrew paratactic style and logical progression.
