SIBI-P1 H8551-08
she will uphold
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect, 3rd person feminine singular (HVqi3fs); prefix conjugation indicating incomplete, habitual, or future action; simple active stem. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root תמך conveys the idea of supporting or holding something up. In the Qal imperfect 3rd feminine singular form (תִּתְמֹךְ), the verb expresses a simple active action performed by a feminine singular subject in an incomplete or future sense—hence, "she will uphold," preserving both the core meaning of support and the feminine singular grammar. |
