SIBI-P1 H3811-05
he has become weary
| Morphological Notes | Niphal stem (passive/reflexive), perfect (completed action), 3rd person masculine singular. The Niphal here conveys entering into a state of weariness. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root לאה conveys the state of weariness or exhaustion. In the Niphal perfect 3rd masculine singular, the verb expresses a passive or stative condition, thus "he has become weary" reflects both the completed aspect and the reflexive/passive nuance of the stem while preserving the masculine singular form. |
