And He made fruitful
To bear fruit, to produce offspring or yield produce, both in the literal sense of plants and trees yielding fruit, and metaphorically in reference to increase, fertility, and prosperity. The verb can also denote becoming fruitful or causing to be fruitful, applying to physical fertility (of land, trees, animals, or humans) as well as to broader themes of prosperity and multiplication in a community or nation.

Common Translation
| Phrase | And He made fruitful |
SIBI-P1 Translation H6509-13
he made fruitful
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative) stem, sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem conveys causation, so the verb expresses causing fruitfulness rather than merely being fruitful. The 3rd person masculine singular sequential imperfect form is reflected as "he made fruitful." |
