SIBI-P1 H5956-11

you cause to be veiled

Morphological NotesHiphil verb, likely imperfect/jussive form, second masculine singular (2ms). The Hiphil stem conveys causative action applied by a male singular subject.
Rendering RationaleThe root עלם carries the sense of veiling or concealing from sight. In the Hiphil stem, the verb takes a causative force, meaning "to cause to be hidden" or "to conceal." The morphology indicates second masculine singular (2ms), so the rendering "you cause to be veiled" preserves both the causative stem and the masculine singular address.
