הוֹרִדֻ֖/הוּ
𐤄𐤅𐤓𐤃/𐤄𐤅
yârad
had brought him
To go down, descend, or move from a higher to a lower position, either physically (such as descending a mountain, moving from inland to the coast, or traveling to a region of lesser elevation) or metaphorically (such as a decline in status or fortune). The term also extends to causing something or someone to move downward or to a lower status, including bringing, leading, or letting down. It is used for descending geographically, as when traveling from the central highlands of ancient Israel to the coastal plain, or for entering lower regions such as Egypt—which was often described as 'going down' due to its geographic position relative to the land of Israel.

they brought him down
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil (causative) perfect, 3rd person common plural + 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem makes the verb causative, indicating causing someone to descend. The perfect 3rd person common plural with a 3rd masculine singular suffix yields "they brought him down." |
