Order of direct and indirect object - Volgorde van lijdend en meewerkend voorwerp

If a clause contains both a direct object and an indirect object, the direct object follows the indirect object.

Sara geeft Kamil een boek. Sara geeft hem een boek.
Sara gives Kamil a book. Sara gives him a book.

However, if both objects are personal pronouns, then the direct object precedes the indirect object:

Sara geeft het hem.
Sara gives him it.
