and you built
| Root | בנה (b-n-h) |

| Semantic Range | to build a physical structure; to establish a city or altar; to found or establish a household or dynasty; figuratively to build up, restore, or cause to prosper; to obtain children (build a house). |
| Conceptual Significance | בנה expresses both physical construction and covenantal establishment—building houses, altars, cities, and dynasties. It often conveys the idea of establishing something enduring, whether a family line, a place of worship, or the nation itself. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ + Qal wayyiqtol/perfect 2nd masculine singular (Vqq2ms) from בָּנָה; denotes completed action in narrative sequence addressed to a masculine singular subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is from the root בנה (b-n-h), meaning "to build" or "to establish." The form is Qal wayyiqtol/perfect 2nd masculine singular with prefixed conjunction, indicating a simple completed action by a masculine singular subject, hence "and you built." |
