Exegesis
The infinitive construct mi-lā-kēḏ {מִלָּכֶד | mi-lā-kēḏ} specifies the threat from which protection is afforded. Hebrew verbal forms are rendered as future tense to convey certainty, while the infinitive construct appears literally as “from being caught” in the formal and as “from being trapped” in the dynamic translation to capture both literal and idiomatic force.
Root and etymology
ל־כ־דl-k-d
