SIBI-P1 H5437-71
he will circle about
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular. The Qal expresses simple active action; the imperfect denotes incomplete or future action: "he will circle/turn about." |
| Rendering Rationale | The root סבב conveys the idea of turning or moving in a circular motion. Rendering it as "he will circle about" preserves the concrete sense of revolving or encircling, while the third masculine singular Qal imperfect form is reflected by "he will," indicating simple active action by one male subject. |
