SIBI-P1 Translation H6238-04
to enrich
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative), infinitive construct; expresses the act of causing wealth or prosperity. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives the verb a causative force, indicating causing someone else to become rich or prosperous. The infinitive construct expresses the action in its verbal essence, thus "to enrich" preserves both root meaning and morphology. |
