To go, move, proceed, or walk—a verb indicating movement from one place to another, whether by walking, traveling, or departing.

you will go
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem (simple active), imperfect (yiqtol), 2nd person feminine singular. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
go
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | Verb is 2fs jussive/imperfect; 'go' better fits prohibitive context after 'do not.' 'You will go' misrepresents intention as future instead of command. |
