they run
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 3rd person masculine plural form denotes simple active motion by multiple male subjects. "They run" preserves the core idea of swift movement inherent in רוץ and reflects the plural masculine imperfect form without adding contextual nuance. |
