from building
To build, to construct, especially in relation to physical structures or settlements; by extension, to establish or found (such as a house, dynasty, city, or altar). Figuratively, to establish or produce offspring, particularly sons (with emphasis on founding a family line or household). The word can also denote repairing or restoring what has been broken or ruined, as well as setting up, making ready, or preparing something for use. The notion of building is often employed idiomatically in relational or social contexts, such as 'building a house' referring to establishing a household or lineage.

SIBI-P1 Translation H1129-31
from built-up daughters of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִ ('from') + noun feminine plural construct of בַּת ('daughter'); no pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun בְּנוֹת is feminine plural construct of בַּת, derived from בנה ('to build'), denoting female offspring or dependent female members. The prefixed מִ marks 'from,' and the construct state requires an open relational sense ('of'), preserving both plurality and the root sense of those built up within a household or group. |
