SIBI-P1 H6770-01
you will thirst
| Root | צמא (ṣ-m-ʾ) |
| Core Meanings | thirst, dryness, craving, longing |
| Semantic Range | to experience physical thirst; to suffer dryness; to long intensely for water; figuratively, to crave, yearn, or desire deeply (for God, righteousness, relief, etc.) |
| Conceptual Significance | Thirst in the Hebrew Bible often symbolizes both physical dependence and spiritual longing. It expresses human vulnerability and need, and metaphorically portrays the soul’s yearning for God, justice, or restoration. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect (yiqtol), 2nd person masculine plural from the root צמא; expresses incomplete or future action: "you (mp) will thirst." |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Qal imperfect, second person masculine plural, indicating a simple active action directed to a group of males or a mixed group: "you (plural) will thirst." The rendering preserves the concrete root sense of physical thirst, which also carries figurative implications of deep longing. |
