SIBI-P1 Translation H3363-03
and she was dislocated
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol), 3rd person feminine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple state of being out of joint or separated. The sequential imperfect 3rd feminine singular is rendered as a past narrative action, preserving both the feminine subject and the root sense of dislocation rather than shifting to a causative meaning. |
