Exegesis
The phrase ba-tzedek {בַּצֶּ֣דֶק | ba-ṣé-ḏeq} “in righteousness” denotes the means or condition, and kiso {כִּסְאֽוֹ | kî-sʾô} serves as the subject “his throne.” Hebrew places the result after the imperative to highlight cause and effect, mirrored in English with a command followed by a consequence clause.
