mûwth
to put him to death
To die, to cease living; to come to the end of life through natural, violent, or judicial means. Functions both as an intransitive verb (to die, to perish) and, in derived stems, as a causative (to put to death, to kill). The semantic range extends metaphorically to describe the loss of vitality, the end of lineage, or spiritual death, and is used idiomatically for expressing certainty ('to surely die').

SIBI-P1 Translation H4191-35
to cause him to die
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil infinitive construct of מות with prefixed ל ("to") and 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix ("him"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem expresses causation, shifting the root meaning from "to die" to "to cause to die." The infinitive construct with prefixed ל and 3ms suffix yields "to cause him to die," preserving both the causative force and the masculine singular object. |
