SIBI-P1 Translation H3034-25
and they acknowledged themselves
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hithpael (reflexive), sequential perfect (vav-consecutive), 3rd person common plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hithpael stem conveys a reflexive action, indicating that they caused themselves to acknowledge—hence a self-involving declaration or confession. The sequential perfect with prefixed ו renders as "and they," preserving the 3rd person common plural form. |
