SIBI-P1 H4347-03

the smiters

Morphological NotesDefinite article הַ + Hiphil active participle masculine plural absolute of נכה. The Hiphil stem conveys causative action (to cause a blow, to strike). The plural ending -ים marks masculine plural.
Rendering RationaleThe form הַמַּכִּים is the definite article plus a masculine plural Hiphil active participle from נכה, meaning "those who cause to be struck" or "those who strike." Rendering it as "the smiters" preserves the causative nuance of the Hiphil stem and reflects the masculine plural participial form.
