Exegesis
The Hebrew opening employs the negative particle lo {לֹא | lō} ‘not’ prefixed to the Nifal imperfect teḥad {תֵחַד | tēḥaḏ} ‘will be joined’ with the prepositional object ittam {אִתָּם | ʾittām} ‘with them’ and the noun biqqurah {בִּקְבוּרָה | biqqūrāh} ‘in burial’, indicating exclusion from interment.
In context — Isaiah 14:20
You will not be joined with them in burial, because you have ruined your land and slaughtered your people; the seed of evildoers will never be named for ever.
