SIBI-P1 Translation H7891-02
Let me sing
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, cohortative, 1st person common singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem preserves the simple action "to sing," and the 1st person singular cohortative form expresses volition or resolve. "Let me sing" reflects both the root meaning and the cohortative nuance of self-exhortation. |
