Exegesis
The conjunction ve-lo {וְלֹא | və-lōʼ} ‘and not’ introduces the negative result clause governed by the Qal perfect verb ma‘adû {מָעֲדוּ | mā‘a·dû} ‘they slipped,’ whose plural subject is karsullay {קַרְסֻלָּי | qərsullāy} ‘my ankles.’ The structure presents a clear cause-and-effect relationship in which divine provision secures the believer’s steps.
Root and etymology
ק־ר־ס־ל
