SIBI-P1 Translation H3190-08
to make good
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Hiphil (causative) stem; infinitive absolute form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, shifting the root idea of "being good" to "making good" or "causing to be good." As an infinitive absolute, it expresses the verbal action in its intensified or emphatic form, here rendered concisely as "to make good." |

| Rationale | Rendered as 'thoroughly' to match the adverbial usage here, modifying how the judges inquire. 'To make good' does not fit the adverbial function in context. |
