SIBI-P1 `H8045-19`

to cause to be destroyed

Root	שמד (š-m-d)
Core Meanings	desolation, annihilation, extermination, eradication
Semantic Range	to annihilate, exterminate, eradicate, wipe out, bring to ruin, cause to perish utterly
Conceptual Significance	שׁמד often describes total destruction—whether of nations, cities, or idolaters—frequently in contexts of covenant judgment. It conveys not mere defeat but removal from existence, highlighting the severity of divine justice and the seriousness of covenant unfaithfulness.
Morphological Notes	Verb from root שׁמד in Hiphil stem (causative), infinitive construct with prefixed לְ (“to”). No person, gender, or number marking in this form.
Rendering Rationale	The verb is in the Hiphil stem, which conveys a causative action, and in the infinitive construct with prefixed לְ (“to”). Rather than the simple “to perish,” this form means “to cause to be destroyed,” preserving both the root sense of desolation and the causative force of the Hiphil.
