Phraseand I testified

SIBI-P1 Translation H5749-13

and I solemnly warned

Morphological NotesVerb, Hiphil (causative), sequential imperfect (vav-consecutive), 1st person common singular.
Rendering RationaleThe Hiphil stem gives a causative nuance from the root idea of repeated affirmation, yielding the sense of causing testimony to be given or issuing a formal warning. The sequential imperfect with 1st person singular is rendered "and I" to preserve the morphology.
