| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil stem (causative), infinitive construct with prefixed לְ indicating purpose or result. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root יסף denotes adding or increasing. In the Hiphil stem, it carries a causative force, so the infinitive construct expresses the act of causing addition or further increase. |
