they will thrust forcefully
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal imperfect, 3rd person masculine plural. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
they will blow
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | The context is blowing trumpets, so 'they will blow' is the correct, context-aware rendering. P1's 'they will thrust forcefully' is lexically accurate but not contextually idiomatic here. |
