Similarly Deut 11:11 הַשָּׁמַיִם לִמְטַר‎ after the manner of the rain of heaven, i.e. as the rain permits (opposed to the artificial irrigation of 11:10), Judg 21:12 + זָכָר לְמִשְׁכַּב‎, Ezek 12:12 לַעַיִן‎ i.e. as the eye sees it.

d. for, during, Isa 63:18 לַמִּצְעָר‎ (si vera lectio), 2Chr 11:17 שׁלושׁ לשׁנים‎, 29:17.

7 With an infinitive (Ges^{§ 114}, 2), ל‎ denotes

a. most commonly the end or purpose of an action ( = the Latin Gerund with ad, e.g. ad faciendum, to do): Gen 1:17 and he placed them in the firmament וְלִמְשֹׁלוּ֗֗֗לְהַבְדִּיל לְהָאִיר‎ to give light . . ., and to rule . . ., and todivide, etc., 2:15 set him in the garden וּלְשָׁמְרָהּ לְעָבְדָהּ‎ to till it, and to keep it, 2:9 brought them to Adam לִרְאוֺת‎ to see, etc., + very often; 19:20 שָׁ֑מָּה לָנוּס קְרֹבָה‎ near for fleeing thither, Eccl 3:2 לָלֶדֶת עֵת‎ a time for bringing forth. The negative is expressed by לְבִלְתִּי‎, q. v.

b. with reference to, limiting or qualifying the idea expressed by the principal verb, and so resolvable sometimes into so as to, to, sometimes into in respect of, in: — (a) so as to, to, Deut 8:6 and keep the commands of י אֹתוֺ וּלְיִרְאָה בִּדְרָכָיו ׳לָלֶכֶת‎ to walk in his ways, and to fear him, 10:15; 11:22; 19:9; 1Kin 2:3-4, 11:2; 1Sam 20:20, 36; Joel 2:26 לְהַפְלִיא עִמָּכֶם עָשָׂה אֲשֶׁר‎ so as to do wondrously, Ezek 5:6; Judg 5:18 לָמוּת נַפְשׁוֺ חֵרֵף עַם‎ so as to die, for dying [not 'unto death'], 16:16; 2Kin 20:1 לָמוּת חָלָה‎; Gen 2:3 לַעֲשׂוֺת‎ so as to make (or in making) which, he created; and in the very frequently לֵאמֹר‎, introducing the words spoken, so as to say = saying (German indem er sagte), 1:22, etc. (b) in respect of, in (compare 5e (b)) 34:7; 1Sam 12:17 your evil is great that ye have done מלך לכם לִשְׁאוֺל‎ in asking for yourselves a king, 1 Samuel 12:29; 14:33 the people sin against J. עלהֿדם לאכל‎ in eating with the blood, 19:5; 2Sam 19:7; 2Kin 4:24; Jer 44:18; Psa 36:3; 63:3; 78:18; 101:8; 103:20; Neh 13:18. And with the tert. compare., above

5e (b). Especially with verbs expressing what with us would be denoted by an adverb adjunct, but in Hebrew idiom forms the principal idea, as 1Sam 1:12 לְהִתְמַּלֵּל הִרְבְּתָה‎ literally did much in respect of praying ( = prayed long or much), Isa 55:7 לִסְלוֺחַ יַרְבֶּה כִּי‎ +; 2Kin 2:10 לִשְׁאוֺל הִקְשִׁיתָ‎ thou hast done hardly in respect of asking ( = asked a hard thing), 1Kin 14:9 לַעֲשׂוֺת הֵרַע‎; so with הקריב‎ Gen 12:11, מִהַר‎ 27:20, הרחיק‎ Exod 8:24 הֶעְמִּיל‎ Num 14:44, הֵהִין‎ Deut 1:41, בּשֵׁשׁ‎ Judg 5:28, הפליא‎ 13:19; 2Chr 26:15 (with passive verb), שׁוּב‎ 1Kin 13:17; Ezra 9:14, היטיב‎ Jer 1:12 + (without לְ‎ 1Sam 16:17), העמיק‎ Isa 29:15 +, קֵרֵב‎ Ezek 36:9, הגדיל‎ Joel 2:20 +, לִבְרֹחַ קִדַּמְתִּי‎ Jonah 4:2, הגביהּ‎ Psa 113:5, השׁפיל‎ 113:6; Gen 31:27 לִבְרֹחַ נַחְבֵּאתָ‎ hast hidden thyself in regard to fleeing = hast fled secretly, 2Sam 19:4 לָבוֺא וַיִּתְגַּנֵּב‎ = come in stealthily. (c.) by an extension of (b), the infinitive with לְ‎ so forms the complement of a verb that, if the verb be transitive, it becomes virtually its object: so very often with such verbs as הוסיף‎ to add Gen 4:2, 12, הֵחֵל‎ to begin 6:1, חדל‎ 11:8, יכל‎ 13:6, מִהַר‎ 18:7, נתן‎ to permit 20:6, אבה‎ 24:5, בקשׁ‎ Exod 2:15, מֵאֵן‎ 7:14, למד‎ Deut 14:23, חפץ‎ 25:8, ידע‎ 1 Kings 5:20 (these all occur also without לְ‎); הואיל‎ to undertake, consent, Gen 18:17, 31, כִּלָּה‎ to finish, תָּמַם‎ Deut 2:16 (to come to an end in respect of), קִוָּה‎ Isa 5:2; also צִוָּה‎ Gen 50:2, אָמַר‎ Exod 2:14, דִּמָּה‎ Num 33:56, חשׁב‎ 1Sam 18:25, יעץ‎ Psa 62:5, לִמֵּד‎ Jer 12:16, אָהֵב‎ Hosea 12:8: Deut 10:12 what doth ׳י‎ ask of thee ליראה אם כי‎ except to fear etc. ? (compare Micah 6:8 after דרשׁ‎ without ל‎). (d) as the subject of a sentence (rare): Isa 10:7 בלבבו להשׁמיד‎, 1Chr 29:12; with טוב‎ 1Sam 15:22; Psa 118:8; 118:9; Eccl 7:2, 5; Prov 21:9 (usually without לְ‎, as 21:19; 25:24; Exod 14:12); compare 8:22 כן לעשׂות נכון לא‎; 2Sam 18:11 לָתֵת וְעָלַי‎, Neh 13:13; Ezra 10:12; Micah 3:1 לדעת לכם הלא‎, Ezra 4:3; 2Chr 13:5; 20:17; 26:18. (e) with אֵין יֵשׁ,‎ (late), and (more rarely) לֹא‎, in sense of it is (not) possible to . . ., or (sometimes) there is no need to . . . : see יֵשׁ‎

2c c (p. 442); אַיִן‎

5 (p. 34 b), adding Hag 1:6; Est 8:8; 2Chr 22:9; לֹא‎

1a b (p. 518): and compare Dr^{§ 202} Ges^{§ 114l} Dav^{§ 94 b, 95 b}. (f) with הָיָה‎, to express the idea of destination, as Num 24:22 לְבָעֵר יהיה וקין‎ shall be for consuming, Deut 31:17; Isa 5:5; 6:13; 37:26; Ezek 30:16; Psa 109:13 +. compare לַעֲשׂוֺת מֶה‎ what is (was) to be done? Isa 5:4; 2Kin 4:13; 2Chr 25:9 + (Dr^{§ 203}). (g) expressing (according to the context) tendency, intention, or obligation (the 'periphrastic' future): — Hosea 9:13 בָּנָיו הוֺרֵג אֶל לְהוֺצִיא וְאֶפְרַיִם‎ is for bringing forth (= must bring forth), Isa 10:32 לעמד בנֹב היום עוד‎ is he for tarrying (must he tarry), 38:20 ׳י ׳י, להושׁיעני‎ is (ready) to save me, 44:14 (si vera lectio), Jer 51:49; Hab 1:17; Psa 32:9; 49:15 שְׁאוֺל לְבַלּוֺת צוּרָם‎ = must Sheol waste away, 62:10 לַעֲלוֺת בְּמאֹזְנַיִם‎, Prov 18:24; 19:8 טוב למצא תבונה שׁומר‎ will be finding prosperity, 20:25; Job 30:6; 1Chr 22:5 (לִבְנוֺת‎), Eccl 3:15: of past time, Gen 15:12 לבוא השׁמשׁ ויהי‎ was about to go down, Josh 2:5; 1Sam 14:21b (text dubious: Dr^{§ 206} Obs.), 2Chr 26:5 (strangely) אלהים לדרשׁ ויהי‎ RV set himself to seek; usually without היה‎, 2Sam 4:10 לוֺ לְתִתִּי אֲשֶׁר‎ to whom it was for my giving (I ought to have given), 2Kin 13:19 לְהַכּוֺת‎ percutiendum erat, 1Chr 9:25, and more freely 2Chr 11:22 להמליבו כי‎ for (he was) for making him king, 12:12 להשׁחית ולא‎ and was no longer for destroying him, 36:19 (?): in a question, Gen 30:15 וְלָקַחַת‎ and art thou for taking ?

Note. — 1Kin 6:19 שָׁם לְתִתֵּן‎, the supposition that לְ‎ is a conjunction (= למען‎) is too alien to Hebrew usage to be justified by the Arabic for , and the view that תִתֵּן‎ here and 17:14 is an anomalous form for תֵת‎ (Ew^{§ 238 c} Kö^{i. 305}) is against analogy: read with Ol^{§ 224 d}, Ges^{§ 67} A. 3, Klo, לָתֵת‎ (as 17:14 Qr).
