In Exodus 15:2, the first-person singular Hiphil imperfect form occurs in the speaker’s declaration concerning “my God”; the APB renders the clause, “and I will beautify him,” alongside statements of strength, song, and salvation.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Exodus 15:2, the APB presents the clause as “and I will beautify him.” This rendering is read with the clause rather than as a complete lexical definition.
