SIBI-P1 Translation H5375-19
he lifted
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, perfect (suffix conjugation), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple active sense of the root נשׂא, whose primary meaning is to lift or carry. The perfect 3rd masculine singular form is rendered "he lifted," reflecting completed action by a masculine singular subject. |
