SIBI-P1 Translation H3782-36

they will stumble

Morphological NotesVerb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine plural.
Rendering RationaleThe Qal stem expresses simple active action, and the imperfect 3rd person masculine plural form denotes incomplete or future action, hence "they will stumble." The rendering preserves the core idea of losing steadiness inherent in the root כשׁל.
