coming-down
To go down, descend, or move from a higher to a lower position, either physically (such as descending a mountain, moving from inland to the coast, or traveling to a region of lesser elevation) or metaphorically (such as a decline in status or fortune). The term also extends to causing something or someone to move downward or to a lower status, including bringing, leading, or letting down. It is used for descending geographically, as when traveling from the central highlands of ancient Israel to the coastal plain, or for entering lower regions such as Egypt—which was often described as 'going down' due to its geographic position relative to the land of Israel.

SIBI-P1 Translation H3381-36
to descend
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, infinitive construct; simple active action of descending. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal infinitive construct expresses the simple verbal action of the root without person or tense marking. "To descend" preserves the basic downward movement inherent in יָרַד and reflects the active, non-causative stem. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
the descending of
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 as 'to descend' is infinitive, but here it is a noun form (infinitive construct); 'the descending of' better reflects the Hebrew syntax before a noun phrase (your enclosing walls). |
