Exegesis
The negative particle lo {לֹֽא | lō’} negates immediate judgment, and the temporal markers beyamav {בְּיָמָ֔יו | bə-yā-mā-v} ‘in his days’ contrasted with bimei {בִּימֵ֣י | bi-mê} + veno {בְנ֔וֹ | bə-nô} ‘in the days of his son’ shift the timing of the disaster.
In context — 1 Kings 21:29
Have you seen how Ahab has humbled himself before Me ? Because he has humbled himself before Me, I will not bring the disaster in his days, but in the days of his son I will bring the disaster upon his house .
