SIBI-P1 H5971-13

kin-peoples

Morphological NotesMasculine common plural absolute noun from עַם (ʻam). The form עַמִּים shows the characteristic masculine plural ending -ים. No pronominal suffix is attached.
Rendering RationaleThe noun עַמִּים is masculine plural absolute, so the rendering reflects a plural group (“-peoples”). By using “kin-peoples,” the translation preserves the root sense of those bound together in shared association or kinship, rather than a generic political term alone.
