And drink!
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperative, 2nd person masculine plural, with prefixed conjunction ו |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem preserves the simple active sense "to drink," and the imperative form calls for direct action. The masculine plural imperative is reflected as a plural command in English, with the prefixed conjunction rendered as "And." |
