like his ruler
| Morphological Notes | Prefixed כ (comparative "like/as") + masculine singular construct noun מֹשֶׁל + 3rd person masculine singular suffix ("his"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מֹשֶׁל denotes "one who rules" (ruler, governor). In construct with a 3ms suffix it becomes "his ruler," and the prefixed כ adds the comparative sense "like," yielding "like his ruler." |
