incurring guilt
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, infinitive absolute; expresses the verbal action in an abstract or intensified form without person, number, or gender. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple active sense of becoming guilty or liable. As an infinitive absolute, it presents the verbal idea in its pure, intensified form—thus "incurring guilt" as an abstract or emphatic expression of culpability. |
