Exegesis

The conjunction velo {וְלֹ֤א | wə-lōʾ} links to the hiphil perfect higid {הִגִּיד֙ | hi-gīḏ}, introducing an indirect report clause with et asher asah {אֵ֖ת אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשָֽׂה | ʾêt ʾă-šer ʿā-sāh}. The English rendering shifts to subject-verb-object order for clarity while preserving the Hebrew’s comparative and emphatic structures.

In contextJudges 14:6

And the Spirit of the LORD seized him, and he tore him apart as one might tear a young goat ; he had nothing in his hand, and he did not tell his father or his mother what he had done.
