Exegesis
The direct negation lo {לֹ֣א | lōʾ} precedes the Qal imperfect raanannah {רַעֲנָֽנָה | ra-ʿă-nā-nāh} ‘it will be luxuriant’, heightening the contrast between anticipated vitality and its denial. This parallel structure mirrors the proverb-like couplet, which is maintained in English through coordinated clauses.
In context — Job 15:32
It will be accomplished before his time, and his branch will not be green.
