and she lifted him up

Morphological NotesQal wayyiqtol (vav-consecutive imperfect) 3rd feminine singular from נשא, with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (-הוּ, "him"). Narrative past tense with feminine subject and singular masculine object.
Rendering RationaleThe root נשא fundamentally means "to lift" or "to bear." The Qal wayyiqtol form indicates a simple active past action by a third feminine singular subject, and the 3rd masculine singular suffix "-him" is preserved. "She lifted him up" reflects both the root’s core sense and the precise grammatical features.
