SIBI-P1 H1234-18

she will split them open

Morphological NotesVerb in Piel stem (intensive), imperfect 3rd feminine singular, with 3rd masculine plural pronominal suffix ("them").
Rendering RationaleThe root בקע conveys the act of cleaving or breaking something open. The Piel stem intensifies the action, suggesting forceful splitting. The form is 3rd feminine singular imperfect with a 3rd masculine plural suffix, hence "she will split them open," preserving both the intensified action and the correct gender and number of subject and object.
