SIBI-P1 Translation H935-197
and you caused them to enter
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Hiphil (causative); sequential imperfect (vav-consecutive); 2nd person masculine singular; with 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem of בוא conveys causation, meaning "to cause to come/enter" or "to bring in." The 2nd masculine singular sequential imperfect with 3rd masculine plural suffix is preserved as "you caused them to enter," reflecting both the causative action and the plural object. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
and you brought them
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'and you caused them to enter' is overly literal; 'and you brought them' is contextually natural for the verb in narrative action and matches SILEX definition. |
