SIBI-P1 Translation H8214-03
one who brings low
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Hiphil (causative); active participle; masculine singular; absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, "to cause to be low," and the masculine singular active participle denotes an ongoing or characteristic agent. "One who brings low" preserves both the causative force and the root idea of lowering. |
