SIBI-P1 H622-10
I will gather in
| Root | אסף (ʾ-s-p̄) |
| Core Meanings | gather, collect, assemble, bring in, remove, take away |
| Semantic Range | to gather people or objects together, assemble, bring into safety, collect harvest, withdraw, remove, take away in judgment, gather to oneself (including in death). |
| Conceptual Significance | אָסַף often conveys themes of ingathering—whether of harvest, exiles, or the righteous to their kin—or removal in judgment. It can signal both restoration (being gathered to one’s people) and divine action in taking away, reflecting covenantal dynamics of preservation and accountability. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect, 1st common singular; simple active stem indicating the speaker’s future or incomplete action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root אסף centers on the act of gathering or collecting together. In the Qal imperfect first common singular (HVqi1cs), the form אֶאֱסֹף expresses a simple active future action by the speaker, hence "I will gather in," preserving both the core idea of ingathering and the first-person singular sense. |
