Exegesis
The verse features two parallel prohibitions introduced by the negator lo {לֹא | lo} with the Qal imperfect tittenu {תִתְּנוּ | tit-te-nu}, creating a strong negative command pattern.
In context — Leviticus 19:28
You shall not make an incision for a soul in your flesh, and you shall not put engraving on yourselves. I am the LORD .
