Exegesis
In the second clause, the conjunction kî-lōʾ {כִּי־לֹא | kî-lōʾ} ‘for not’ introduces the reason for the breach: the failure to consult, expressed by də·rā·šnû·hû {דְרַשְׁנֻהוּ | də-rā-šnû-hû} ‘inquire of him’.
In context — 1 Chronicles 15:13
For when you did not do it the first time, the LORD our God broke out against us, because we did not inquire of Him according to the ordinance .
