SIBI-P1 H1855-02

she will cause to crumble to pieces

Rootדקק (d-q-q)
Core Meaningscrushing, pulverizing, making fine, reducing to small pieces
Semantic Rangeto crush, pulverize, grind down, break into pieces, reduce to powder or fine fragments
Conceptual SignificanceThis verb often appears in contexts of decisive judgment or overpowering force, depicting the complete reduction of something mighty into insignificant fragments. It vividly expresses total defeat and irreversible destruction under divine or sovereign action.
Morphological NotesAramaic verb; Hiphil (causative) imperfect, 3rd feminine singular. The prefix ת marks 3fs in the imperfect; the Hiphil stem gives a causative nuance: "she/it will cause to crush."
Rendering RationaleThe root דקק conveys the idea of crushing or reducing something to fine fragments. The Hiphil stem (causative) requires the sense "cause to crumble," and the 3rd feminine singular form is reflected by "she will," preserving both the causative force and grammatical gender/number of the verb.
