SIBI-P1 Translation H7896-34
he will set
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple active action of placing or establishing. The imperfect 3ms form indicates incomplete or future action, thus "he will set" preserves both the root sense of positioning and the verbal morphology. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
he set
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 rendering 'he will set' incorrectly implies future tense; the form is imperfect with vav consecutive indicating past narrative, so 'he set' matches the context better. |
