Exegesis
The adjective ariri {עֲרִירִי | ʿărîrî} ‘childless’ is further specified by the participial clause gever lo-yitslach be-yamav {גֶּבֶר לֹא־יִצְלַח בְּיָמָיו | ge-ḇer lō-yiṣ-laḥ bə-yā-māw} ‘a man who will not succeed in his days’.
In context — Jeremiah 22:30
Thus says the LORD: Write down this man as childless, a man who will not succeed in his days; for none of his descendants will succeed in sitting on the throne of David or ruling any longer in Judah.
