Exegesis
The negative particle lo {לֹא | lō} with the Qal imperfect verb yacharokh {יַחֲרֹךְ | yaḥă-rōḵ} indicates habitual failure by the remiyyah {רְמִיָּה | rə-mi-yyā} “slothful one” to prepare tzeido {צֵידוֹ | ṣē-yə-ḏō} “prey”.
Root and etymology
y-dyod–dalet
“hand, power”
In context — Proverbs 12:27
The slothful man does not roast his game, but diligence is a man’s precious wealth.
