SIBI-P1 Translation H559-72
and you said
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Qal stem; sequential perfect (vav-consecutive); 2nd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root אמר denotes verbal expression—saying or speaking. The Qal sequential perfect, second masculine singular, conveys a completed action in sequence, hence "and you said," preserving both the simple stem and the masculine singular form. |
