| Morphological Notes | Qal infinitive construct of קרא with prefixed ל preposition (“to/toward”). No person, gender, or number marking; functions adverbially to express purpose, direction, or result. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form לִקְרַאת is a Qal infinitive construct with the prefixed preposition ל, expressing purpose or direction. Rendering it as "to encounter" preserves the root sense of an active meeting or calling into contact, while accurately reflecting the infinitive (non-finite verbal) form. |
