SIBI-P1 H2763-24

and I will put under the ban

Morphological NotesConjunction וְ + Hiphil perfect 1st common singular of חרם. The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense: "to cause to be devoted/placed under the ban." The prefixed waw links it sequentially, often future in narrative context.
Rendering RationaleThe root חרם conveys the act of placing something under a sacred ban—devoting it irrevocably, often to destruction. The Hiphil stem expresses causative action ("cause to be banned/devoted"), and the 1st person common singular perfect with prefixed conjunction is rendered "and I will," preserving both the causative force and the speaker’s singular agency.
