Exegesis
The verse opens with the infinitive absolute yadoa {יָדֹעַ | yā·ḏō·aʿ} ‘knowing’ reinforcing the following imperfect teda {תֵּדַע | tē·ḏaʿ} ‘you shall know,’ a prototypical Hebrew emphatic construction.
In context — Proverbs 27:23
You shall surely know the condition of your flocks; set your heart to the herds.
