Exegesis
The imperatives bō-ʾī {בּ֛וֹאִי | bō-ʾî} and shiḵ-vî {שִׁכְבִ֥י | shiḵ-vî} intensify the demand, while the possessive suffix in ʾa-ḥō-tî {אֲחוֹתִי | ʾa-ḥō-tî} highlights kinship. English rendering coordinates clauses to preserve abrupt escalation and retains the infinitive purpose for narrative clarity.
