to his gods

Rootאלה (ʾ-l-h)
Core Meaningsdeity, power, might, divine being, object of worship
Semantic RangeSupreme God (especially with article), gods (pagan deities), angels, judges/magistrates, mighty ones; majestic plural for singularity or intensive emphasis.
Conceptual Significanceאֱלֹהִים underscores God's supreme power and uniqueness amid polytheistic contexts, contrasting YHWH with false gods; the plural form with singular agreement highlights monotheism, divine council imagery (Ps 82), and theological depth in poetry/wisdom literature like Job.
Morphological NotesHR/Ncmpc/Sp3ms: Noun, common gender, masculine plural, construct state, with 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix; plural of singular אֱלוֹהַּ (H433), often denoting the supreme God despite plural form.
Rendering RationaleThis rendering preserves the plural construct form (Ncmpc) of אֱלֹהִים indicating 'gods of' and the 3ms pronominal suffix (Sp3ms) as 'his', reflecting masculine singular possession; it maintains the root's core sense of divine powers while accurately conveying the common translation 'by his God' in context as a bound form. The preposition לֵ ('to/for') is implied in the surface forms but integrated contextually.
