you will eat
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem (simple active), imperfect conjugation, 2nd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 2nd masculine singular form expresses a simple, active action performed by a male singular subject. "You will eat" preserves the core sense of consuming while reflecting the imperfect aspect and masculine singular morphology. |
