Exegesis
The series of infinitives lin-tôš {לִנְת֥וֹשׁ | lin-tôš}, wə-lin-ṭōṣ {וְלִנְת֖וֹץ | wə-lin-ṭōṣ}, and u-lə-ha-ʾă-bîḏ {וּלְהַאֲבִֽיד | u-lə-ha-ʾă-bîḏ} conveys intensification through successive actions—uprooting, pulling down, destroying—underscoring total judgment. This structure is preserved in both reconstructions by maintaining the parallel infinitives and conditional framework.
In context — Jeremiah 18:7
At the moment I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to uproot, to pull down, and to destroy it.
