Cause to be hidden!

Morphological NotesHiphil stem (causative). Attested as Hiphil infinitive absolute and Hiphil imperative 2nd masculine singular. The imperative form directly addresses a single male subject; the infinitive absolute can intensify or emphasize the action.
Rendering RationaleThe root סתר conveys the act of hiding or concealing. In the Hiphil stem, the verb is causative, meaning "to cause to hide" or "to cause to be hidden." The morphology includes a Hiphil imperative 2nd masculine singular form, which is reflected in the direct command "Cause to be hidden!" preserving both the causative force and the masculine singular address.
