Exegesis

The verse opens with coordinate prohibitions al-tivku {אַל־תִּבְכּ֣וּ | ʾal-tibkû} ‘do not weep’ and ve-al-tanudu {וְאַל־תָּנֻדוּ | wə-ʾal-tā-nû-dû} ‘and do not lament’, both using the Qal imperfect with negative particles to express ongoing prohibitions.

In contextJeremiah 22:10

Do not weep for the dead, nor lament for him; but weep bitterly for the one going away , for he will not return again nor see his native land .
