you will forget

Rootשכח (sh-kh-ḥ)
Core Meaningsto forget, to mislay, to be oblivious, to lose from memory or attention
Semantic Rangeto forget, to cease remembering, to neglect, to ignore, to lose awareness of, to fail to care for
Conceptual SignificanceIn the Hebrew Bible, forgetting is often covenantal and moral rather than merely mental. To "forget" YHWH or His deeds implies neglect, disloyalty, or failure to live in faithful remembrance, making the verb central to themes of covenant fidelity and spiritual attentiveness.
Morphological NotesQal imperfect (yiqtol) 2nd masculine singular; some occurrences function as jussive 2ms. No pronominal suffix. Root שׁכח in the simple (Qal) stem denotes the act of forgetting or becoming oblivious.
Rendering RationaleThe form is Qal imperfect/jussive second masculine singular, expressing the simple action of forgetting performed by a male addressee. "You will forget" preserves the basic, active sense of the Qal stem and reflects the 2ms morphology inherent in the Hebrew form.
