their appointed oversight
| Morphological Notes | Feminine singular noun in construct state + 3rd person masculine plural suffix ("their"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun פְּקֻדָּה denotes an act or office of appointed oversight or visitation rooted in פקד (“to attend/appoint/muster”). The construct singular with 3mp suffix yields “their appointed oversight,” preserving both the administrative sense and the pronominal ownership. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
their mustering
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'their appointed oversight' is too administrative; 'mustering' in a military census context fits the SILEX sense more closely here. |
