SIBI-P1 H6974-09

they will rouse themselves awake

Rootקוץ (q-w-ṣ (qûṣ))
Core Meaningsabrupt rising, waking suddenly, rousing from sleep, stirring up
Semantic Rangeto awake suddenly, to rouse oneself, to stir up from sleep, to become alert, to arise abruptly (literally or figuratively)
Conceptual SignificanceThis verb often carries imagery of spiritual or moral awakening, not merely physical rising from sleep. In prophetic and poetic contexts, it can signal divine intervention, renewed awareness, or the stirring of a people to action or judgment.
Morphological NotesHiphil stem (causative), imperfect aspect, 3rd person masculine plural. The imperfect form typically denotes future or incomplete action: "they will" or "they shall."
Rendering RationaleThe root קוץ conveys the idea of abruptly waking or springing up from sleep. In the Hiphil imperfect 3rd masculine plural (HVhi3mp), the form expresses a causative or inchoative action carried out by "they" (masculine plural), hence "they will rouse themselves awake," preserving both the causative nuance and the plural masculine subject.
