Exegesis
The parallel negatives lo-ya’amod-bi koach {לֹֽא־יַעֲמָד־בִּ֣י כֹ֔חַ | lōʾ-ya-ʿă-mā́ḏ-bî kō-aḥ} ‘no strength stands in me’ and lo nisharah-bi {לֹ֥א נִשְׁאֲרָה־בִֽי | lōʾ niš-ʾă-rā́h-bî} ‘no breath remains in me’ personify abstract nouns to portray utter exhaustion. The Hebrew’s repetition and parallelism create dramatic emphasis, preserved in English by coordinating an interrogative and two negative clauses.
Root and etymology
’-m-dayin–mem–dalet
“to stand”
In context — Daniel 10:17
