SIBI-P1 Translation H2939-03
they will feed him
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Pael (intensive/causative), imperfect, 3rd person masculine plural with 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Pael stem conveys an intensive/causative sense of the root "to taste," thus "to cause to taste/eat," i.e., to feed. The imperfect 3rd masculine plural with a 3rd masculine singular suffix yields "they will feed him." |
