SIBI-P1 H7725-87

you (men) will turn back

Morphological NotesQal imperfect (yiqtol) verb, 2nd person masculine plural. The Qal stem expresses simple or intransitive action: “to turn/return.” The imperfect form typically conveys future, habitual, or modal nuance depending on context.
Rendering RationaleThe root שׁוב carries the core idea of turning or returning. In the Qal imperfect 2nd masculine plural (HVqi2mp), the form addresses a group of males and expresses incomplete or future action, hence “you (men) will turn back,” preserving both the directional sense of the root and the masculine plural morphology.
