you will call
| Morphological Notes | Qal stem; imperfect (yiqtol); 2nd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 2nd masculine singular form expresses a simple, active action performed by a masculine singular subject. "You will call" preserves the root idea of vocal summoning or naming while reflecting the imperfect (incomplete/future) aspect. |
