SIBI-P1 Translation H7200-87
they saw her
| Morphological Notes | Qal perfect, 3rd person common plural + 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem conveys simple active seeing or perceiving. The perfect 3rd person common plural with a 3rd feminine singular suffix yields "they saw her," preserving both the root sense of visual perception and the attached feminine object. |
