Esther5:9
Est 5:9
Haman went forth from the palace satisfied and with a joyful heart. When, however, he saw Mordochai in the king’s gate, who neither stood up nor trembled before him, he was full of indignation against him. וגו קם ולא are circumstantial clauses following the principal clause without a copula. קם and זע are perfects, and ולא - ולא are used in the sense of neque - neque. זוּע constructed with מן means to tremble before any one, to be disquieted.
