Exegesis
The emphatic negative sequence ou mē {οὐ μὴ | ou mē} with piō {πίω | píō} forms a forceful refusal, not a mere hesitation, and English naturally represents this as a firm future-facing denial.
In context — Luke 22:18
For I say to you, from this time forward I will certainly not drink from the vine’s yield until the kingdom of God comes.
