SIBI-P1 Translation H3680-65
he covers over
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Piel stem (intensive), imperfect conjugation, 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Piel stem conveys an intensive or deliberate action of covering or concealing, so "covers over" reflects the strengthened verbal force. The imperfect 3ms form is rendered as "he covers" to preserve third masculine singular imperfect aspect without contextual specification. |
