Exegesis
The construct chain mishpat-mavet {מִשְׁפַּט־מָ֖וֶת | miš-pāṭ mā-weṯ} forms the legal verdict ‘judgment of death’, and vehumat {וְהוּמָ֑ת | wə-hū-māṯ} (Hofal perfect) conveys the completed execution.
In context — Deuteronomy 21:22
And when there is in a man a sin worthy of the judgment of death, and he has been put to death, and you hang him on a tree.
