So their armies continue to send out ambush after ambush against it,
كَمِينٍ — an ambush. The same noun repeated, now in the genitive because 'after' governs it. The pairing 'ambush after ambush' uses the bare repetition, with case marking the second copy, to express an unending succession. Arabic leans on this doubling where English might add 'one after another'.
