Exegesis
Two parallel negatives, lo {לֹא | lōʾ} and ve-lo {וְלֹא | wə-lōʾ}, frame the refusal with imperfect verbs (nelekh {נֵלֵךְ | nēlēḵ} ‘we will go’ and nasur {נָס֖וּר | nāsûr} ‘we will turn aside’).
In context — Judges 20:8
And all the people arose as one man and said, “Not one of us will go to his tent , and not one of us will turn aside to his house .”
