Common Translation
| Phrase | and I testified |
SIBI-P1 Translation H5749-14
and I solemnly warned
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol), 1st person common singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem conveys a causative or declarative force—causing testimony or issuing formal warning—so "solemnly warned" reflects the act of invoking or reiterating testimony. The 1st person singular sequential imperfect with prefixed ו is rendered as "and I" in narrative sequence. |
