SIBI-P1 H5975-94
they shall stand firm
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect (yiqtol/jussive) 3rd masculine plural from עָמַד. The Qal stem expresses simple or stative action: "to stand" or "to remain." Context may nuance it as future, habitual, or jussive ("may they stand"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is Qal imperfect 3rd masculine plural, indicating a future or modal action performed by masculine plural subjects—"they shall." The rendering "stand firm" preserves the core root sense of taking or maintaining an upright, established position, whether literal or figurative. |
