and they will become full

Rootמלא (m-l-ʾ)
Core Meaningsfullness, filling, completion, abundance, fulfillment
Semantic Rangeto be filled, become full, be completed, be satisfied, reach fullness, be accomplished, be supplied in abundance
Conceptual SignificanceThe concept of fullness in the Hebrew Bible often signifies divine blessing, satisfaction, completion of a period, or the fulfillment of a purpose. Conversely, it can also mark the fullness of iniquity or judgment, indicating a divinely appointed completion.
Morphological NotesConjunction וְ ("and") prefixed to Niphal imperfect 3rd masculine plural of מלא. The Niphal stem conveys a passive or reflexive sense ("be/become filled").
Rendering RationaleThe verb is Niphal imperfect 3rd masculine plural, expressing a passive or stative sense: "they will be/become filled." Rendering it as "they will become full" preserves the root idea of fullness (מלא) while accurately reflecting the third person masculine plural form and the imperfect (future/incomplete) aspect, along with the prefixed conjunction "and."
