SIBI-P1 Translation H1961-57
you will become
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 2nd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 2ms form expresses incomplete or future action directed to a masculine singular subject. "You will become" preserves the root sense of coming into a state of being while reflecting the second person masculine singular morphology. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
it become
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'you will become' is a 2ms rendering, but in context the verb is feminine singular and refers to the land (הָאָרֶץ); 'it become' is more correct. |
