1. Taking personal delight in something · dominant

   The Hithpael forms portray delight as an activity directed toward or drawn from a stated object or source. In Psalm 37:4 the imperative is followed by the LORD giving the petitions of the heart; in Job 22:26 the same pattern joins delight in the Almighty with lifting up the face to God. In Isaiah 66:11 the APB renders the clause "delight yourselves from the abundance of her glory," while Isaiah 57:4 asks, "Upon whom do you take your delight?"

2. Passive descriptive use · rare

   In Jeremiah 6:2, the passive participle occurs in the comparison concerning the daughter of Zion. The APB renders the surrounding description "The lovely and the delicate one," but the translation does not isolate the participle's precise contribution beyond this descriptive setting.

   Jeremiah 6:2

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the Hithpael clauses, the APB commonly uses "delight yourself" or "delight yourselves," and it also has "take your delight" and "from delight." In Jeremiah 6:2 it instead gives the descriptive wording "lovely and the delicate one"; these are translation renderings rather than definitions.
