SIBI-P1 H2232-26
he will sow seed
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine singular from זרע, expressing incomplete or future action in the simple active stem. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular, indicating a simple active action performed by “he” in a future or incomplete sense. Rendering it as “he will sow seed” preserves both the masculine singular subject and the root idea of scattering seed inherent in זרע. |
