SIBI-P1 H1846-01
he will be extinguished
| Root | דעך (d-ʿ-k) |
| Core Meanings | to be extinguished, to go out, to be quenched, to fade, to expire |
| Semantic Range | to be extinguished (of a lamp or fire), to go out, to fade away, to expire, to be quenched, to become dim, to perish |
| Conceptual Significance | Often used of lamps, fire, or metaphorically of life and the prosperity of the wicked, the root conveys the image of a light being put out. It expresses the loss of vitality, hope, or legacy, underscoring themes of judgment, mortality, and the fleeting nature of human strength apart from YHWH. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect 3ms from the primitive root דעך. The form expresses incomplete or future action with a masculine singular subject; the verb is intransitive in the Qal stem. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular, indicating a simple (non-causative) future or incomplete action with a masculine singular subject. "He will be extinguished" preserves the intransitive force of the Qal stem and reflects the masculine singular morphology while retaining the core image of a flame or life going out. |
