Exegesis
The perfect verbs nochalah {נֽוֹחֲלָ֔ה | nō-ḥă-lāh} ‘she waited’ and avdah {אָבְדָ֖ה | ʾăḇəḏāh} ‘she was lost’ describe resultant states of waiting and ruin, with tikvatah {תִּקְוָתָ֑הּ | tiq-wā-ṯāh} ‘her hope’ in construct highlighting the object lost.
In context — Ezekiel 19:5
When she saw that she had waited in vain and her hope had perished, she took one of her cubs and made him a young lion .
