Exegesis
The adverb akhar {אַ֝חַ֗ר | ’ă-ḥār} ‘afterward’ introduces a temporal sequence leading to uvanitah {וּבָנִ֥יתָ | ū-wā-nî-ṯā} ‘and you shall build’, a Qal perfect with waw-consecutive that signals the result of the prior preparations, culminating in beytekha {בֵיתֶֽךָ | bē-yəṯê-kā} ‘your house’ as the direct object. The coordinated imperatives and the temporal marker emphasize the priority of external work before domestic construction.
In context — Proverbs 24:27
Prepare your work outside, and make it ready in the field for yourself; afterward, you shall build your house .
