SIBI-P1 Translation H935-263
they come
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses simple active movement toward a point of reference. The imperfect 3rd person masculine plural form is rendered as "they come," preserving both plurality and the root’s basic sense of approaching or entering. |

may enter
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'they come' does not capture the jussive/permission sense needed here; 'may enter' fits the permission/exception given to this group in context. |
