SIBI-P1 Translation H7368-03
to cause distance
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Hiphil (causative stem); infinitive absolute. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem makes the verb causative, shifting the basic sense "to be far" into "to cause to be distant" or "to remove." As an infinitive absolute, it is rendered in English as an abstract verbal form preserving the causative force. |
