and she emboldened
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Piel stem (intensive/causative); sequential imperfect (vav-consecutive); 3rd person feminine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Piel stem conveys an intensive or causative action upon the "heart" (inner being), thus "to embolden" or strongly stir emotionally or mentally. The sequential imperfect 3rd feminine singular is reflected by "and she" plus the past narrative sense. |
