SIBI-P1 H2296-25

he will gird himself

Morphological NotesQal imperfect 3rd masculine singular, indicated by the prefixed י (yod). The stem expresses simple active action; the imperfect denotes future or ongoing aspect. No explicit object or suffix is present.
Rendering RationaleThe root חגר conveys the act of fastening or binding something around the waist, especially a belt, sword, or armor. The Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular form (HVqi3ms) indicates a simple active action in the future or incomplete aspect, hence "he will gird himself," preserving both the masculine singular subject and the active stem.
