מֵת֙
𐤌𐤕
mûwth
am dying
To die, to cease living; to come to the end of life through natural, violent, or judicial means. Functions both as an intransitive verb (to die, to perish) and, in derived stems, as a causative (to put to death, to kill). The semantic range extends metaphorically to describe the loss of vitality, the end of lineage, or spiritual death, and is used idiomatically for expressing certainty ('to surely die').

the dying one
| Morphological Notes | Qal active participle, masculine singular, absolute; verbal adjective describing one who is dying or dead. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal active participle masculine singular denotes one in the state or condition of dying. Rendering it as "the dying one" preserves both the verbal force of the participle and the root sense of ceasing to live. |
