Exegesis
The sequence of verbs yivash {יִיבַשׁ | yîy-ḇaš} ‘it shall dry up’, niddaf {נִדַּף | nid-dāf} ‘it is driven away’, and ve-einennu {וְאֵינֶנּוּ | wə-ʾê-nɛn-nû} ‘and it is no more’ forms a climactic tricolon that underscores progressive devastation. The translation mirrors the Hebrew vav-consecutive series with future English verbs to convey certainty and completeness.
In context — Isaiah 19:7
The bare places along the river, at the mouth-of the river, and every sown-field by the river will dry up , be driven away, and will be no more.
