they have sunk low

Morphological NotesVerb in Qal stem, perfect (suffix conjugation), 3rd person common plural. The Qal stem here expresses a simple active or stative sense: to sink, bow, or be low.
Rendering RationaleThe Qal perfect 3rd common plural form denotes a completed action performed by “they.” Rendering it as “they have sunk low” preserves the root sense of sinking or being brought down, while reflecting the plural subject and completed aspect of the verb.
