I will add further
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil (causative stem) imperfect 1st common singular of יסף. The Hiphil stem conveys causing or bringing about addition or increase; the imperfect denotes incomplete or future action from the speaker’s perspective. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is Hiphil imperfect, first common singular, expressing a causative action by the speaker: "I will cause to add/increase." "I will add further" preserves the root idea of augmentation while reflecting the 1cs verbal form and the forward-looking imperfect aspect. |
