you will guide them

Morphological NotesHiphil imperfect, 2nd person masculine singular with 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe Hiphil stem expresses active, intentional guidance, and the imperfect 2ms form with 3mp suffix indicates "you" (masculine singular) directing "them" (masculine plural). The rendering preserves both the guiding nuance of the root and the full pronominal morphology.
