verb cover, cover in, panel (Late Hebrew סָפַן is respect, care for; Phoenician מספנת roof, Lzb³³⁰; Aramaic סְפַן Ithpe`el be covered, overlaid; Assyrian sapânu (sometimes šapânu!), cover, over-whelm Dl⁵⁰⁸; sapannu, concealment, obscurity, depth (of sea); Ethiopic invalescere, percrebescere, praevalere, Di⁴⁰⁶); —

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

סָפַן fut. יִסְפֹּן prop. to cover (comp. the kindred roots צָפַן, שָׂפַן). Hence

(1) to cover, as with beams or rafters; followed by two acc., 1 Kings 6:9, 7:3.

(2) to floor, to cover with boards, 1 Kings 7:7; Jeremiah 22:14; Haggai 1:4.

(3) to hide, to preserve. Deuteronomy 33:21, וַיַּרְא בִּי־שָׁם הֶלְקַת מְחֹקֵק סָפוּן “and he saw a portion assigned by the law-giver there preserved,” (סָפוּן agrees in gender not with חֶלְקָה to which it refers, but with the nearer word מְחֹקֵק, comp. 1 Samuel 2:4 Lehrg. p. 721).

Derived nouns סִפּוּן, סְפִינָה.
