SIBI-P1 H5358-11

she will avenge herself

Morphological NotesHithpael imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd person feminine singular of נקם. The Hithpael stem adds reflexive nuance ("avenge oneself"), and the imperfect form generally indicates incomplete action (future, habitual, or modal).
Rendering RationaleThe root נקם conveys the idea of executing vengeance or exacting retribution. In the Hithpael stem (reflexive) imperfect, third feminine singular, the form תִתְנַקֵּם means "she will avenge herself," preserving both the reflexive force of the stem and the feminine singular subject indicated by the morphology.
