SIBI-P1 H1961-57

you shall become

Morphological NotesHVqi2ms: H = prefix (taw with dagesh, marking imperfect); V = vowel pattern (qamets-segol); qi = Qal imperfect; 2ms = second-person masculine singular. The imperfect aspect indicates incomplete or future action. The prefix taw (ת) marks second-person forms in the imperfect.
Rendering RationaleThe morphology HVqi2ms indicates a second-person masculine singular imperfect (future/continuous action), derived from the root היה (hâyâh) meaning 'to be/become.' The rendering 'you shall become' preserves both the future-oriented sense of the imperfect stem and the second-person masculine singular subject, reflecting the dynamic sense of 'becoming' rather than static 'being' where the context emphasizes transformation or coming-to-pass.
