SIBI-P1 H5055-06
he gores
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine singular from נָגַח. The Qal stem expresses the simple active action of butting or goring; the imperfect denotes incomplete, habitual, or future action depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular, indicating a simple active action performed by a masculine singular subject: "he gores" or "he will gore." The rendering preserves the concrete root image of horn-thrusting while accurately reflecting the third masculine singular form. |
