Exegesis
The Qal imperfect yišʿû {יִשְׁע֖וּ | yišʿû} ‘they looked’ is immediately qualified by the existential clause ve-ʾēn mōšîaʿ {וְאֵ֣ין מֹשִׁ֑יעַ | wə-ʾēn mōšîaʿ} ‘and there is no deliverer.’
In context — 2 Samuel 22:42
They looked around for help, but there was no one who could save; they turned to the LORD , but He did not answer them.
