they will give warning

Morphological NotesVerb, Hiphil (causative) stem, imperfect conjugation, 3rd person masculine plural.
Rendering RationaleThe Hiphil stem conveys causative action, shifting the root idea of shining into causing awareness—thus "to give warning" or "to admonish." The imperfect 3rd person masculine plural is rendered as "they will," preserving person and number.
