and you destroyed
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Piel stem (intensive/causative), sequential perfect with prefixed conjunction, 2nd person masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Piel stem gives an intensive/causative force, shifting the root sense from "to perish" to "to cause to perish, to destroy." The 2nd person masculine plural sequential perfect is reflected in "you destroyed," with the prefixed conjunction rendered as "and." |
