he strikes down
| Root | נגף (n-g-p̄) |
| Core Meanings | to strike, smite, push, gore, defeat, cause to stumble |
| Semantic Range | to strike physically, to smite in battle, to defeat an enemy, to afflict with plague, to wound, to cause someone to stumble or fall |
| Conceptual Significance | נגף frequently describes decisive acts of striking—whether in warfare or divine judgment. It often conveys YHWH’s direct intervention in defeating enemies or afflicting with plague, highlighting divine sovereignty over life, health, and national destiny. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine singular of נָגַף; denotes simple active action, often future, habitual, or modal depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple active sense of the root נגף, meaning to strike or smite. The imperfect 3rd masculine singular form is reflected by "he strikes down," preserving both the active force of the verb and the singular masculine subject indicated by the morphology. |
