Exegesis
The opening vehayah {וְהָיָ֧ה | wə-hā-yāh} ‘and it will be’ signals a prophetic futurity and introduces divine action; the subject yəhōwāh {יְהוָ֛ה | Yə-hō-wāh} occurs twice for rhetorical emphasis.
In context — Zechariah 14:9
And the LORD will be king over all the earth; on that day the LORD will be one and His name one .
