and I heard him

Morphological NotesConjunction ו + Qal perfect 1cs שְׁמַעְתִּי with 3ms pronominal suffix ו ("him"). Sequential perfect form in narrative context.
Rendering RationaleThe root שמע fundamentally denotes hearing with attentive response. In the Qal perfect first common singular with a 3rd masculine singular suffix, the form means "I heard him," with the prefixed conjunction ו marking sequence. The rendering preserves both the simple active sense of Qal and the masculine singular object.
