SIBI-P1 H8055-57
they will rejoice
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine plural from שָׂמַח. The imperfect form typically expresses future, habitual, or modal action depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root שׂמח conveys the idea of brightening up or experiencing joy. In the Qal stem it denotes becoming glad or rejoicing. The form is Qal imperfect, 3rd person masculine plural, so "they will rejoice" accurately preserves both the simple active sense of the root and the masculine plural future aspect. |
