and the dwelling ones

Morphological NotesConjunction וְ (and) + definite article הַ + Qal active participle masculine plural absolute of יָשַׁב (yāšab). The participle functions substantivally: "the ones dwelling."
Rendering RationaleThe form is a Qal active participle masculine plural with the definite article and prefixed conjunction, literally "and the ones who are dwelling." Rendering it as "the dwelling ones" preserves the participial sense of ongoing residence or settled presence, while reflecting the masculine plural form.
