Exegesis
The negative particle lo {לֹא | lō} negates the imperfect tigof {תִגּוֹף | ti-gôp̣}, forming a promise of unimpeded progress. The chiastic parallelism reinforces the link between faithful behavior and protection. English punctuation preserves the Hebrew balance and emphasis on assurance.
In context — Proverbs 3:23
Then you will walk safely on your way, and your foot will not stumble.
