to our ruling-princes

Morphological NotesPreposition לְ ("to/for") + masculine plural construct noun שָׂרֵי (from שַׂר) + 1st common plural suffix נוּ ("our").
Rendering RationaleThe 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.
