she stole him
| Morphological Notes | Qal perfect, 3rd person feminine singular + 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 3rd feminine singular form denotes a completed act performed by a feminine subject, and the 3rd masculine singular suffix marks the direct object as "him." The rendering preserves the core root sense of stealthy taking without adding contextual nuance. |
