SIBI-P1 H8269-08
to our ruling-princes
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ ("to/for") + masculine plural construct noun שָׂרֵי (from שַׂר) + 1st common plural suffix נוּ ("our"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שַׂר derives from the root שׂרר, "to rule," and denotes one who exercises authority. The form שָׂרֵינוּ is masculine plural construct with a first common plural suffix ("our"), and the prefixed לְ adds "to." "To our ruling-princes" preserves the governing sense of the root while accurately reflecting the masculine plural and the 1cp possessive suffix. |
