to meet him
| Morphological Notes | Qal infinitive construct with prefixed ל ("to/for") + 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix ("him"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The infinitive construct of קרא here reflects the developed nominal nuance of encounter (קִרְאָה), expressing the act of going toward a summoned or encountered meeting. The 3rd masculine singular suffix is preserved as "him." |
