Exegesis
Two parallel clauses employ the negator lo {לֹא־ | lōʾ} with the Qal imperfect verbs taʿăzov {תַעֲזֹ֣ב | ta-ʿă-zōḇ} ‘you will abandon’ and titten {תִתֵּ֥ן | tit-ten} ‘you will permit’, forming a symmetric structure of divine assurances.
In context — Psalm 16:10
For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol , and You will not permit Your Holy One to see corruption.
