SIBI-P1 Translation H7462-45
he will see
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple active sense "to see." The imperfect 3rd masculine singular form conveys incomplete or future action, hence "he will see," preserving both root meaning and verbal morphology. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
grazes
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'he will see' is incorrect contextually and lexically; the Hebrew verb here means 'to graze' or 'to feed,' not 'to see.' The correct rendering is 'grazes' to fit the subject and context. |
