SIBI-P1 Translation H7760-102
may he set
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, 3rd person masculine singular, jussive form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem conveys the simple active sense "to set/place." The 3rd person masculine singular jussive expresses a volitional nuance, hence "may he set" or "let him set." |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
he sets
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | Changed to 'he sets' for correct third person indicative in the context; P1's 'may he set' is jussive/subjunctive, but narrative is reporting what is done, not a wish. |
