SIBI-P1 H2194-01
I will rage in indignation
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol) 1st common singular. The Qal conveys the simple active sense: "to rage/be indignant." The imperfect form here expresses future, modal, or rhetorical nuance depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 1st common singular (HVqi1cs) expresses a future or volitional action performed by the speaker: "I will". The rendering "rage in indignation" preserves the root sense of זעם as foaming, eruptive anger rather than merely mild displeasure, thus maintaining the visceral force of the Hebrew. |
