Exegesis
Finally, the negative clause lo yitslach la-kol {לֹ֥א יִצְלַ֖ח לַכֹּֽל | lōʾ yiṣ-laḥ la-kol} uses negation plus Qal imperfect to express total failure. English rendering preserves the sequential flow, relative structure, and interjective emphasis.
In context — Jeremiah 13:7
So I went to Perath and dug, and I took the waistband from the place where I had hidden it; and behold, the waistband was ruined, and it would not succeed for anything.
