SIBI-P1 H559-08

I have caused-to-say

Morphological NotesHiphil (causative) perfect consecutive, 1st person common singular (HVqp1cs); vocalized as אָמַרְתִּי with 1cs suffix -תִּי.
Rendering RationaleThis rendering preserves the core semantics of the root אמר ('to say/speak') while explicitly reflecting the Hiphil stem (HV), which denotes causative force ('cause to say' or 'command'), distinguishing it from simple Qal 'saying'; the 1cs perfect consecutive (qp1cs) morphology is captured in the first-person singular 'I have', maintaining person, number, and tense-aspect for faithful grammatical correspondence.
