SIBI-P1 Translation H5641-26
may you conceal
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative) stem, jussive, 2nd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, "to cause to be hidden," which is naturally rendered in English as "to conceal." The jussive 2ms form is reflected by "may you," preserving both mood and masculine singular address. |
