Exegesis
The prohibitive sequence wə-lō-yōsîp̄ ʿôwd lāgaʿat bāḵ {וְלֹֽא־יֹסִ֥יף ע֖וֹד לָגַ֥עַת בָּֽךְ | wə-lō-yōsîp̄ ʿôwd lāgaʿat bāḵ} combines a negative Qal imperfect, an adverb of repetition, and an infinitive of potential action to guarantee cessation of harm. English renders the infinitive as “bother” to convey ongoing effect.
