SIBI-P1 H6-81
they will wander away and perish
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine plural from אבד; expresses incomplete or future action, intransitive voice. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple, intransitive sense of the root—becoming lost or perishing rather than actively destroying. The imperfect 3rd masculine plural form is reflected by "they will," and the rendering preserves both the idea of wandering away and the resulting perishing inherent in אבד. |
