and I caused to multiply
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + Hiphil perfect 1cs of רבה. Hiphil expresses causative action: "I caused to increase/multiply." The perfect form denotes completed action or, in prophetic discourse, a declared future act. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Hiphil perfect 1st person common singular with a prefixed conjunction ("and"), indicating causative action by the speaker. "Caused to multiply" preserves the root idea of increase (רבה) while accurately reflecting the Hiphil stem (causative) and the 1cs subject ("I"). |
