their measured garments
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine plural noun in construct form (מַדְוֵי) with 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix (-הֶם), yielding "their ..." The construct state links the noun to its suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מֶדֶו (medev) is understood to derive from the root מדד, "to measure" or "to stretch." Rendering it as "measured garments" preserves the underlying idea of something apportioned or sized. The form is masculine plural construct with a 3rd person masculine plural suffix ("their"), hence "their measured garments." |
