Exegesis
The existential sequence ve-ein lanu {וְאֵין לָנוּ | wəʾēn lānu} ‘and there is not for us’ frames marpe {מַרְפֵּא | mārpē} ‘healing’ as the expected result.
In context — Jeremiah 14:19
Have You utterly rejected Judah, or has Your soul loathed Zion? Why have You struck us so that there is no healing for us? We hoped for peace, but there is no good; and for a time of healing, but behold, terror!
