SIBI-P1 Translation H8213-12
she will bring him low
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil imperfect, 3rd feminine singular subject + 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem conveys causation, so the verb means to cause someone to become low. The 3rd feminine singular imperfect with 3rd masculine singular suffix yields “she will bring him low,” preserving both causative force and pronominal object. |
