was poured forth

Root	נתך (n-t-k)
Core Meanings	to pour out, to flow forth, to melt, to liquefy, to be poured
Semantic Range	to be poured out (liquid), to be melted, to be liquefied, to flow away, to be cast down (figuratively, as wrath or heart melting)
Conceptual Significance	Often used of wrath, judgment, or anguish being "poured out," this verb conveys the imagery of something once contained now released in full force. It evokes both physical liquefaction and the figurative outpouring of emotion or divine judgment in the biblical narrative.
Morphological Notes	Niphal perfect, third person masculine singular (HVNp3ms). The Niphal stem marks passive or middle voice; the perfect form indicates completed action.
Rendering Rationale	The Niphal stem conveys a passive or reflexive sense, indicating that the subject (third person masculine singular) undergoes the action of the root נתך. "Was poured forth" preserves the core imagery of flowing or liquefying inherent in the root while accurately reflecting the Niphal perfect 3ms form.
