begetting one
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, active participle, masculine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal active participle masculine singular denotes an ongoing or characteristic action, thus "begetting one" reflects a male actively bringing forth offspring. This preserves the root sense of producing descendants without reducing it to a finite verb. |
