To approach, come near, or draw close, whether physically, relationally, or in a ritual or legal context. The verb במיוחד is used for physical proximity (approaching a place or person), but also in contexts of initiating speech, confrontation, violent engagement, or ritual act (such as presenting offerings). In some contexts, it carries the sense of bringing near (causative), either an object or oneself. The semantic range includes approach, advance, access (including in ritual settings), present (especially offerings), come forward (in legal or interrogative contexts), attack (as an enemy), and, euphemistically, to have sexual relations.

SIBI-P1 Translation H5066-26
you bring near
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative) imperfect, 2nd person masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, "to bring near" rather than simply "to approach." The imperfect 2nd person masculine plural form is rendered as "you bring near," preserving both causation and plural address. |
