He wrapped or covered me, used in Isaiah 61:10 of being clothed with salvation's robe
This verb appears in Isaiah's triumphant declaration: 'He has covered me with the robe of righteousness.' The imagery is sartorial and ceremonial, evoking priestly or royal investiture. The parallel verb 'clothed me with garments of salvation' reinforces the metaphor. Some scholars suggest reading this as a form of the more common ʿāṭâ, though the Qal perfect form here is distinctive.
