she perished
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, perfect conjugation, 3rd person feminine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple intransitive sense of the root אבד, meaning to be lost or to perish. The perfect 3rd feminine singular form requires the rendering "she perished," preserving both gender and number. |
