Build!

Morphological NotesVerb from בנה in the Qal stem; imperative, 2nd person masculine singular (HVqv2ms). The Qal conveys simple, active action.
Rendering RationaleThe form is Qal imperative, second masculine singular, expressing a direct command to one male individual. "Build!" preserves the root sense of constructing or establishing while reflecting the simple active (Qal) stem and the singular masculine address inherent in the morphology.
