Exegesis
The conjunction waṯibṭaḥî {וַתִּבְטְחִי | waṯibṭaḥî} 'and you trusted' followed by bāššāqer {בַּשָּׁקֶר | bāššāqer} 'falsehood' marks the transition from divine faithfulness to utter deception. The perfect and consecutive imperfect verb forms reflect completed past actions that justify the pronouncement of judgment.
