let him turn aside

Morphological NotesQal stem, jussive aspect, 3rd person masculine singular. The jussive expresses volition or command directed toward a third-person male subject.
Rendering RationaleThe root שׂטה conveys the idea of deviating or straying from a set path or duty. The form is Qal jussive, 3rd masculine singular, expressing a wish or command concerning a single male subject, hence "let him turn aside," which preserves both the core sense of deviation and the masculine singular verbal force.
