you (ms) will sow
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 2nd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem preserves the simple active sense "to sow." The imperfect 2nd masculine singular is rendered as "you (ms) will sow," maintaining person, gender, number, and the forward/incomplete aspect inherent in the form. |
