Exegesis
The final two clauses use mē {μὴ | mē} with present imperatives, tarassesthō {ταρασσέσθω | tarassésthō} and deiliatō {δειλιάτω | deiliátō}, which functions as a strong prohibition against continuing disturbance or fear.
In context — John 14:27
Peace I am leaving with you; my peace I am giving to you. I am not giving to you in the same way the world gives. Let your heart not be unsettled , nor let it be afraid.
