SIBI-P1 H2204-07
she has grown old
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Qal stem (simple/stative); perfect aspect; 3rd person feminine singular. The form זָקְנָה indicates a completed or established state of aging in a female subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 3rd feminine singular form expresses a completed or established state: "she has grown old" or "she became aged." This rendering preserves the stative sense of the root זקן (to become old) and clearly reflects the feminine singular subject indicated by the morphology. |
