weighs-it-down
To bow down, prostrate oneself, or stoop, in an act of deference, submission, or homage; used of physically lowering the body as a gesture of respect before a superior, whether human (such as a king or dignitary) or divine (God or a deity).

SIBI-P1 Translation H7812-37
he will make her bow down
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil imperfect verb, 3rd person masculine singular with 3rd person feminine singular pronominal suffix (object). |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, so the subject causes another to perform the action of bowing. The imperfect 3ms with 3fs suffix is reflected as "he will" acting upon "her." |
