Exegesis
The coordinating conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí} introduces a parallel structure: sēmeion ou dothēsetai autē {σημεῖον οὐ δοθήσεται αὐτῇ | sēmeîon ou dothḗsetai autḗ} negates the future passive verb with ou, signifying refusal.
In context — Matthew 16:4
An evil and adulterous generation keeps looking for a sign, but no sign will be granted to it except the sign of Jonah ; and after leaving them, He went away.
