SIBI-P1 Translation H1692-20
and they caused to cling
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative) stem; sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol); 3rd person masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense to the root דבק, indicating that they caused something or someone to adhere or cling closely. The sequential imperfect (3mp) is reflected by the past narrative sense "and they" with plural masculine subject. |
