ya.tsag describes placing something in a location, bringing people before someone, or establishing justice in a public setting.

The attested uses chiefly concern putting objects or persons into a specified place: the ark, rods, fleece, and ephod are placed, while people may be brought before another person or assigned to a group. One imperative applies the action to justice at the gate, calling for it to be established there.

1. Placing an object in a designated location · dominant

   In 1 Chronicles 16:1 and 2 Samuel 6:17, Hiphil sequential imperfect forms occur as the ark is brought into the tent and put in its place. The same concrete placement is shown when rods are put before the flock in Genesis 30:38, a fleece is being set on the threshing floor in Judges 6:37, and an ephod is put in Ophrah in Judges 8:27.

2. Bringing or assigning people before another · common

   In Genesis 47:2, a Hiphil sequential imperfect is used when five brothers are brought before Pharaoh. Genesis 43:9 uses a first-person Hiphil form in a pledge to bring Benjamin and set him before the hearer; Genesis 33:15 concerns leaving people with Jacob, and Judges 7:5 directs Gideon to set apart those at the water.

3. Establishing justice at the gate · rare

   In Amos 5:15, the second-person masculine plural Hiphil imperative stands with the commands to hate evil and love good; the APB renders the clause "establish justice in the gate."

   Amos 5:15

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB varies between "placed," "set," "presented," "set apart," and "establish," according to the surrounding clause. These renderings show the verse-level presentation rather than a fixed English equivalent.
