| Morphological Notes | Verb, Niphal stem, active participle, masculine singular, absolute; reflexive/passive nuance functioning intransitively. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Niphal stem conveys a passive or reflexive sense, here functioning intransitively as "to swell up" or "to be bubbling up." As a masculine singular active participle, it is rendered as a verbal adjective: "one swelling up," preserving both stem nuance and participial form. |
