The Nithpael stem is a variation of the Hithpael and expresses the reflexive voice of the verbal action of the Piel stem. The Nithpael stem is formed from the Hithpael stem by inserting the נ from the Niphal stem into the Hithpael prefix (נִתְ). It is an extremely rare stem formation in Biblical Hebrew.
