SIBI-P1 H2398-33
she will miss the mark
| Root | חטא (ḥ-ṭ-ʾ) |
| Core Meanings | missing a mark, failing, sinning, incurring guilt, forfeiting |
| Semantic Range | to miss a target, to fail, to sin morally, to incur guilt, to forfeit, to bear blame |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical theology, sin is fundamentally portrayed as missing the mark of covenant faithfulness and divine instruction. The verb highlights personal responsibility before יהוה, emphasizing deviation from the intended path rather than merely legal transgression. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd feminine singular from חָטָא; simple active stem indicating the subject (she) performs the action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 3rd feminine singular form expresses a simple active action performed by a feminine singular subject. Rendering it as "she will miss the mark" preserves the concrete root sense of חטא (to miss) while reflecting the future/imperfect aspect and feminine singular grammar. |
