SIBI-P1 Translation H5375-128
he will lift
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect conjugation, 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple active sense of the root נשׂא, meaning to lift or carry. The imperfect 3rd masculine singular form is rendered "he will lift," preserving both the active force and the masculine singular morphology. |
