Exegesis
The second Niphal imperfect verb yitkonan {יִתְכּוֹנָן | yiṯ-kō-nān} ‘it will be established’ conveys passive result. This balanced structure underscores the poetic parallelism that presents both wisdom and understanding as essential instruments for establishing stability in a dwelling.
In context — Proverbs 24:3
By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established.
