| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem (simple active), perfect conjugation, 2nd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem conveys the simple active sense of the root מצא, "to find" or "come upon." The perfect 2nd person masculine singular form is rendered "you found," preserving both the completed aspect and the masculine singular address. |
