SIBI-P1 Translation H1497-10
you seize by force
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 2nd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple active action of the root גזל—taking or robbing by force. The imperfect 2nd masculine singular form is rendered as "you seize by force," preserving both the aggressive root sense and the masculine singular subject. |
