Exegesis
The final clause repeats the negative with talin {תָּלִין | tālîn} ‘you shall withhold’ followed by the construct pe'ullat sakhir {פְּעֻלַּת שָׂכִיר | pə‘ullat śāḵîr} ‘wages of a hired worker’ and the temporal phrase ittekha ad-boker {אִתְּךָ עַד־בֹּקֶר | ʾit·təḵā ʿaḏ bōqer} ‘with you until morning,’ imposing a clear deadline. The repetitive negatives and parallel structure reflect the emphatic style of Hebrew legal texts.
In context — Leviticus 19:13
You shall not oppress your neighbor or rob them. You shall not withhold the wages of a hired worker with you until morning.
