to vine-dressers
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ + masculine plural absolute noun (agent noun from כרם). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כֹּרֵם denotes one who tends or cultivates a vineyard, derived from כרם (vineyard). The masculine plural absolute form כֹרְמִים with prefixed לְ expresses direction or relation, thus "to vine-dressers," preserving both plurality and agent sense. |
