SIBI-P1 Translation H5414-135
and he gave them
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal, sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular subject + 3rd person masculine plural object suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem preserves the simple active sense "to give." The sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol) with 3ms subject and 3mp suffix is reflected in "he gave them," with the prefixed conjunction rendered as "and." |
