— Others consider קולי, &c., to be acc., but the presence of the suff. distinguishes the present case from that in § 67, R. 3.
COMPLEMENT OF THE VERBAL SENTENCE
§ 110. The sent. does not usually consist of mere subj. and pred.; the verbal sent. has usually an obj., and all sentences may have additional elements which are the complements of the two chief parts of the sentence. These complements usually follow the parts, subj. or pred., which they amplify. The order of the verbal sentence is: verb, subj., obj., or complement of the verb. But emphasis may alter this order. Gen. 3:14 עַל־גְּחֹֽנְךָ תֵלֵךְ וְּעָפָר תֹּאכַל on thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat. 1 S. 20:8 וְעַד־אָבִיךָ לָמָּה־זֶּה תְבִיאֵנִי but why bring me to thy father? 1 K. 2:26 עֲנָתֹת לֵךְ to Anathoth with you! Gen. 15:10; 20:4; 38:9, Deu. 5:3, Jos. 2:16, Is. 6:5, Hos. 5:6, Job 1:12; 34:31.
The adverb usually follows the verb, except negatives; and so longer designations of time. But short words of time, like אָז then, עַתָּה now, בְּרֵאשִׁית at first, &c., precede.
§ 111. Out of this principle of emphasis may arise a variety of order, e.g. —
(a) Obj., verb, subj. 1 S. 2:19 וּמְעִיל קָטֹן תַּֽעֲשֶׂת־לּוֹ אִמּוֹ and a little robe his mother used to make him. Gen. 42:4, 1 S. 17:36, 1 K. 14:11. And very often when subj. is contained in the verb. Jud. 14:3, 2 K. 22:8, Is. 4:1, Hos. 1:7; 10:6.
(b) Verb, obj., subj. 1 S. 15:33 כַּֽאֲשֶׁר שִׁכְּלָה נָשִׁים חַרְבְּךָ as thy sword has bereaved women. Gen. 21:7, Nu. 19:7, 18, 1 K. 8:63; 19:10, Is. 19:13.
(c) Subj., obj., verb. Is. 1:15 יְדֵיכֶם דָּמִיִם מָלֵֽאוּ. This collocation brings the subj. and obj. into very close relation. Jud. 17:6 every man what was right in his own sight used to
