they have built
To build, to construct, especially in relation to physical structures or settlements; by extension, to establish or found (such as a house, dynasty, city, or altar). Figuratively, to establish or produce offspring, particularly sons (with emphasis on founding a family line or household). The word can also denote repairing or restoring what has been broken or ruined, as well as setting up, making ready, or preparing something for use. The notion of building is often employed idiomatically in relational or social contexts, such as 'building a house' referring to establishing a household or lineage.

we built
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, perfect (suffix conjugation), 1st person common plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 1st person common plural form denotes a completed action performed by "we." "We built" preserves the root sense of constructing or establishing while reflecting the plural first-person morphology. |
