It is often found in poetic or elevated language, particularly in the Psalms and prophetic literature. Context: לְמוֹ (lemo) is a prepositional form that appears in the Hebrew Bible, primarily in poetic texts. It is a variant of the more common לְ (le), and its usage is often stylistic, contributing to the rhythm and meter of Hebrew poetry. The preposition לְמוֹ is used to express a relationship of direction or purpose, similar to its root form. It can be found in contexts where the action is directed towards a person, place, or thing, or where an action is performed for the benefit of someone or something. For example, in Psalm 49:14 (BSB), it is used to convey the idea of something being destined or appointed for a particular purpose: "Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol; Death will be their shepherd." Here, לְמוֹ (lemo) helps to express the inevitability of the fate described.
