and you shall say

Morphological NotesHC/Vqq2ms: וְ (conjunctive waw) + Qal cohortative (indicated by ַרְתָּ) 2nd person masculine singular of אמר; the cohortative expresses volition, purpose, or emphatic future.
Rendering RationaleThe faithful rendering 'and you shall say' preserves the core semantics of the root אמר meaning 'to say' or 'speak', while exactly reflecting the morphology as a 2nd person masculine singular cohortative Qal verb with the וְ conjunctive prefix indicating sequence. It maintains the grammatical person (2ms), mood (volitive/cohortative for emphatic future intention), and stem (Qal simple active). This form is commonly used in divine instructions where the speaker is commanded to declare God's words.
