Exegesis
Leemor {לֵאמֹ֖ר | lēʾ-mōr} functions as the quotative infinitive “saying,” introducing the imperative shikhvah {שִׁכְבָ֣ה | šiḵ-bāh} ‘lie’ plus immi {עִמִּ֑י | ʿim-mî} ‘with me,’ conveying coercion.
In context — Genesis 39:12
She seized him by his garment , saying, “Lie with me,” but he left his garment in her hand, and he fled and went outside .
