SIBI-P1 `H7999-24`

you will make full restitution

Root	שלם (sh-l-m)
Core Meanings	wholeness, completeness, peace, well-being, restitution, repayment
Semantic Range	to make whole, repay, recompense, restore, render payment, fulfill, complete, make peace, perform fully
Conceptual Significance	This verb reflects the biblical concept that wrongdoing creates a deficit in wholeness (shalom) which must be restored. Repayment is not merely financial but the reestablishment of balance, justice, and communal peace.
Morphological Notes	Verb, Piel stem (intensive/factitive), imperfect (yiqtol) form, second masculine singular. The Piel commonly expresses repayment, recompense, or the act of making something whole.
Rendering Rationale	The root שלם conveys the idea of wholeness or completeness; in the Piel stem it often carries the intensive or factitive sense of making something whole again through repayment or restitution. The form is Piel imperfect, second masculine singular, hence "you will make full restitution," reflecting both the intensified action and the singular masculine addressee.
