he will have-compassion

Morphological NotesQal imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine singular from חָמַל. The imperfect form can denote future action, habitual action, or modal nuance depending on context.
Rendering RationaleThe verb is Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular, indicating "he will" or "he does" in an incomplete aspect. "Have-compassion" preserves the core sense of חמל as an inward feeling that results in sparing, keeping the relational and emotional nuance rather than reducing it to a mere legal act of sparing.
