Cause to stretch out!

Rootנטה (n-ṭ-h)
Core Meaningsstretching out, extending, bending, inclining, turning aside
Semantic Rangeto stretch out (hand, heavens, tent), to extend or spread, to bend or incline (ear, heart), to turn aside, to deviate, to pitch or lay out
Conceptual SignificanceThis verb often describes decisive action—stretching out a hand in power, inclining the ear in attentive mercy, or turning aside from a path. It conveys both physical extension and moral or spiritual direction, highlighting the biblical theme of deliberate orientation either toward YHWH or away from Him.
Morphological NotesHiphil (causative) imperative, 2nd person masculine singular, from נָטָה. The doubled ט reflects the characteristic Hiphil formation.
Rendering RationaleThe form הַטֵּה is a Hiphil imperative masculine singular, expressing a causative command to one male addressee. Rendering it as "Cause to stretch out!" preserves the root sense of extending or bending while reflecting the causative stem and second-person masculine singular imperative force.
