SIBI-P1 Translation H7235-01
I will cause to multiply
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil (causative) imperfect, 1st person common singular verb from רבה. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem conveys causative action, so the subject causes increase rather than merely experiencing it. The imperfect first common singular form is rendered as a future-oriented declaration: "I will cause to multiply." |
