SIBI-P1 H6031-54
they will answer
| Morphological Notes | Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol) conjugation, 3rd person masculine plural from עָנָה. The imperfect form can denote future, habitual, or modal action depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Qal imperfect 3rd masculine plural, indicating a simple active action performed by "they." "They will answer" preserves the core idea of responsive speech inherent in ענה while accurately reflecting the third-person masculine plural imperfect form. |
