Exegesis
The conjunction vav {וְ | wə} introduces the participial clause nozlim {נֹזְלִים | nōz-lîm} ‘flowing streams’, which is linked to the locative phrase mitokh beerekha {מִתּוֹךְ בְּאֵרֶךָ | mit-tôkh bə-ʾê-re-ḵā} ‘from within your well’. This parallel structure emphasizes completeness and ongoing benefit, while the repetition of water imagery underscores faithful exclusivity.
In context — Proverbs 5:15
Drink water from your cistern and flowing streams from within your well .
