SIBI-P1 Translation H6428-04

and roll yourselves

Morphological NotesVerb, Hithpael (reflexive intensive), imperative, 2nd person masculine plural, with prefixed conjunction וְ ('and').
Rendering RationaleThe Hithpael stem conveys reflexive, deliberate self-action, so "roll yourselves" preserves the intensive self-casting sense of the root פלש. The plural imperative is reflected in the second-person plural command form "yourselves."
