shâbath
and-I-will-cause-to-cease
To cease, stop, or come to a halt, most often with reference to activity or work. The verb fundamentally denotes the act of bringing an action or process to an end, either by refraining from continuing it or by enforcing cessation. While commonly associated with the cessation of labor, especially in cultic or societal contexts (such as weekly rest), its usage is broader and includes causing others to cease, terminating a process, or putting something to rest. The semantic range includes both voluntary and commanded forms of cessation, and can extend to activities, events, social practices, or metaphoric forms of putting to rest.

and I will cause to cease
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative) stem, sequential perfect (waw-consecutive), 1st person common singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem makes the verb causative, so rather than "I will cease," it conveys "I will cause to cease" or "bring to an end." The 1st person singular sequential perfect with prefixed conjunction is reflected in "and I will." |
