SIBI-P1 H7070-10
Acquire!
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperative, 2nd person masculine singular. Simple active command addressed to one male individual. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root קנה fundamentally conveys acquiring or bringing something into one’s possession, whether by creation, purchase, or attainment. The Qal imperative masculine singular form calls a single male addressee to perform this action, hence the direct command "Acquire!" which preserves both the root sense and the grammatical force. |
