I will go down
To go down, descend, or move from a higher to a lower position, either physically (such as descending a mountain, moving from inland to the coast, or traveling to a region of lesser elevation) or metaphorically (such as a decline in status or fortune). The term also extends to causing something or someone to move downward or to a lower status, including bringing, leading, or letting down. It is used for descending geographically, as when traveling from the central highlands of ancient Israel to the coastal plain, or for entering lower regions such as Egypt—which was often described as 'going down' due to its geographic position relative to the land of Israel.

SIBI-P1 Translation H3381-06
I will descend
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect, 1st person common singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses simple active motion downward, and the imperfect first common singular form denotes "I will" or ongoing "I" action. "I will descend" preserves both the directional root sense and the 1st person singular morphology. |
