| Morphological Notes | Noun, common masculine plural construct (יְמֵי) from יוֹם. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun יוֹם in masculine plural construct (יְמֵי) denotes multiple days understood as time-periods; the construct state requires linkage to a following noun, hence "days of." This preserves the core temporal sense without narrowing to a specific nuance. |
