and lifeless bodies
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, masculine plural absolute with prefixed conjunction וּ ("and"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The plural masculine noun פְגָרִים denotes bodies that have ceased functioning, emphasizing their inert, vitality-lacking state. "Lifeless bodies" reflects the root sense of exhaustion and cessation, and the prefixed וּ is preserved as "and." |
