| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + cardinal numeral adjective, feminine singular absolute (HC/Acfsa). The feminine form חָמֵשׁ is used when enumerating feminine nouns. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form חָמֵשׁ here is a feminine singular cardinal number in the absolute state, with the prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”). The rendering preserves the conjunction and reflects the feminine grammatical form of the numeral, which in Hebrew agrees with the gender of the noun it counts. |
