Exegesis
The vav-prefixed phrase ve-lifnei {וְלִפְנֵ֣י | wə-lîp̄-nê} ‘and before’ links two parallel offenses in merism: verbal harm against the deaf and physical hindrance in lo-titten {לֹ֥א תִתֵּ֖ן | lō tit-tên} ‘you shall not place’ a stumbling block. The alternation between Piel (intensified action) and Qal (simple action) stems underscores the seriousness of both curses and entrapment.
In context — Leviticus 19:14
You shall not curse the deaf nor place a stumbling block before the blind, but you shall fear your God ; I am the LORD .
