and let me gather together
| Root | קבץ (q-b-ṣ) |
| Core Meanings | grasping, collecting, assembling, gathering together, heaping |
| Semantic Range | to gather, collect, assemble, bring together, heap up, draw in, rally (people), regather (exiles) |
| Conceptual Significance | Often used of YHWH gathering His scattered people, the verb carries covenantal and restoration overtones—depicting divine initiative in regathering Israel from dispersion and reconstituting them as a unified community. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + Qal imperfect 1cs with cohortative ה ending from קבץ; expresses first-person volition or determination ("let me" / "I will surely"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The root קבץ conveys the act of grasping and collecting into one place. The form אֶקְבְּצָה is Qal imperfect 1st common singular with cohortative ending, expressing volition or resolve, hence "let me gather." The prefixed וְ adds "and," preserving both the root sense and the first-person singular volitional force. |
