SIBI-P1 H5137-06

and you (masculine singular) caused-to-sprinkle

Rootנזה (n-z-h)
Core Meaningsspurt, sprinkle, spatter, besprinkle (especially for purification or expiation)
Semantic Rangeritual sprinkling of blood or water, besprinkling for purification, expiatory application of sacrificial blood, symbolic cleansing actions
Conceptual SignificanceThis verb is central to Israel’s purification rites, especially in priestly texts, where sprinkling sacrificial blood or cleansing water signifies atonement, consecration, and restoration to covenantal purity.
Morphological NotesHiphil perfect 2nd person masculine singular with prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). The Hiphil stem conveys causative action.
Rendering RationaleThe root נזה conveys the act of spurting or sprinkling, especially in ritual contexts. The Hiphil stem is causative, so "caused-to-sprinkle" preserves that nuance rather than a simple active "sprinkled." The form is perfect, second masculine singular, reflected by "you (masculine singular)."
