SIBI-P1 Translation H7797-04
he exulted
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem (simple active), perfect conjugation, 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 3ms form denotes a completed act by a masculine singular subject. "He exulted" preserves the root’s sense of active, exuberant, and often outwardly expressed joy rather than a mild internal gladness. |
