SIBI-P1 Translation H3034-24
and he confessed himself
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hithpael (reflexive), sequential perfect (vav-consecutive), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hithpael stem gives a reflexive sense, indicating that the subject performs the act upon himself—thus "confessed himself" as a self-acknowledgment. The sequential perfect with prefixed conjunction yields "and he," preserving third masculine singular form. |
