Exegesis
The first protasis pairs the Qal imperfect ʾeʿeṣōr {אֶעֱצֹר | ʾeʿeṣōr} ‘I restrain’ with the noun hashamayim {הַשָּׁמַיִם | haš-šā-māyim} ‘the heavens’, followed by the negative velo-yihyeh {וְלֹא־יִהְיֶה | wə-lō-yihyēh} ‘and there will not be’ governing the noun matar {מָטָר | māṭār} ‘rain’, expressing divine withholding.
In context — 2 Chronicles 7:13
If I restrain the heavens so that there is no rain , and if I command the locust to devour the land, and if I send a plague among My people.
