Exegesis
The perfect verbs shakhakhat {שָׁכַחַתְּ | šāḵaḥt} ‘you have forgotten’ and zakhart {זָכַרְתְּ | zākhārt} ‘you have remembered’ form a contrastive parallelism addressing the addressee.
In context — Isaiah 17:10
Because you have forgotten the God of your salvation and have not remembered the Rock of your refuge, therefore you plant pleasing growths and sow a foreign shoot.
