Exegesis
The negative existential ve’ein {וְאֵין | wə-ʾêyn} plus participle macharid {מַחֲרִיד | ma-ḥā-rîḏ} expresses absence of any fear-instiller. English translation preserves the Hebrew word order and emphatic progression by maintaining the construct relation and rendering the participle as a natural result clause.
In context — Isaiah 17:2
The abandoned cities of Aroer will be for flocks ; they shall lie down, and none will make them afraid .
