SIBI-P1 H5307-09

cause her to fall

Morphological NotesHiphil imperative, 2nd person masculine singular, with 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix ("her/it"). The Hiphil stem conveys causative action.
Rendering RationaleThe root נפל carries the core idea of falling or being cast down. In the Hiphil stem it becomes causative, meaning "to cause to fall" or "to bring down." The morphology indicates a Hiphil imperative masculine singular with a 3rd feminine singular suffix, hence "cause her to fall," preserving both the causative force and the feminine singular object.
