SIBI-P1 Translation H3254-10
may she cause to add
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil (causative) imperfect/jussive, 3rd person feminine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative force to the root יסף (“to add/increase”), yielding “cause to add.” The 3rd feminine singular jussive is reflected by “may she,” preserving both gender and volitional nuance. |
