SIBI-P1 Translation H1166-06
she will be possessed
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Niphal (passive/reflexive); imperfect; 3rd person feminine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Niphal stem gives a passive/reflexive sense of the root בעל, "to own, possess, be master." As a 3rd person feminine singular imperfect, it denotes that she will come under possession or mastery, preserving both the passive force and feminine singular form. |
