SIBI-P1 Translation H3847-46
and you will clothe
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative), sequential perfect (vav-consecutive), 2nd person masculine singular with prefixed conjunction וְ. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, meaning "to cause to be clothed" or "to clothe another." The sequential perfect 2nd masculine singular with prefixed conjunction is reflected as "and you will," preserving both causation and masculine singular address. |
