STRONGS H589: Abbreviations
אֲנִי, אָ֑נִי pronoun 1st person singular common I (أَنَا, H576 אֲנָא, axnAe  , አነ፡) Genesis 6:17; Genesis 9:9, 12 + often following a participle as its subject (to express mostly either a true present or the futurum instans [immanent future]) Genesis 18:17 הַמְכַסֶּה אֲנִי Am I hiding from Abraham that which, etc., Judges 15:3; 1 Samuel 3:13 Jeremiah 1:12; Jeremiah 38:14; Jeremiah 44:29 (see Dr§ 135,4). Appended to a verb, it expresses, in early Hebrew, a real emphasis, as Judges 8:23 לֹא אֶמְשֹׁל אֲנִי בָּכֶם I will not rule over you, 2 Samuel 12:28 lest I take the city, 2 Samuel 17:15 thus and thus did Ahitophel counsel, and thus and thus יָעַצְתִּי אָ֫נִי did I counsel; but in later Hebrew it is sometimes pelonastc, Ecclesiastes 2:11, 15, 18, 20 +. In response to a question, אָ֫נִי alone = I am, It is I, Genesis 27:24; Judges 13:11; 1 Kings 18:8 +. With הֲ, הַאֲנִי † Isaiah 66:9. (Synonym H595 אָנֹכִי, which see).
