Exegesis
The negated verb phrase velo yikarei {וְלֹא יִקָּרֵא | wə-lō yiqqārē} lists the former names ha-tophet {הַתֹּפֶת | ha-tō-p̄eṯ} and gei ben-hinnom {גֵיא בֶן־הִנֹּם | gēʾ ben-hin-nōm} before the adversative im pivots to gei ha-haregah {גֵּיא הַהֲרֵגָה | gēʾ ha-ha-rē-gāh}. The repetition of gei highlights the contrast between past defilement and forthcoming devastation, underscoring divine judgment.
In context — Jeremiah 19:6
“Therefore, behold, the days are coming,” declares the LORD , “when this place will no longer be called Topheth or the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter.”
