| Morphological Notes | Qal verb with prefixed conjunction ו (vav-consecutive), second masculine singular, with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix ("him"). The vav-consecutive gives it sequential or future force in narrative or legal contexts. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is from the root עבד, conveying the act of working or rendering service, often in a context of allegiance or subordination. The form is Qal with vav-consecutive, second masculine singular with a third masculine singular suffix, accurately reflected by "you" (2ms) as the subject and "him" (3ms) as the object. |
