SIBI-P1 Translation H7065-07
I have been zealous
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Piel stem (intensive/expressive), perfect conjugation, 1st person common singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Piel stem intensifies or expresses active zeal, and the perfect 1st person singular indicates a completed action by the speaker. "I have been zealous" preserves both the root idea of ardent passion and the completed personal expression of that zeal. |
