SIBI-P1 Translation H5307-03
let me fall
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Qal stem (simple active); cohortative; 1st person common singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem preserves the simple intransitive sense "to fall." The cohortative first-person singular form expresses volition or resolve, hence "let me fall" as a self-directed intention or wish. |
