Convene!

Morphological NotesHiphil imperative, 2nd person masculine singular; causative command directed to one male individual.
Rendering RationaleThe Hiphil stem expresses causation, so the imperative calls on a masculine singular addressee to cause others to assemble. "Convene" preserves the formal, initiatory sense of summoning a gathered body.
