his vigor

Rootאון (ʾ-w-n)
Core Meaningsstrength, vigor, generative power, capacity, wealth, substance
Semantic RangePhysical strength, virility, generative power (especially firstborn potency), capacity, wealth, material substance, or force.
Conceptual Significanceאוֹן often conveys more than physical strength; it can denote a man’s generative vitality (as in reference to a firstborn) or material substance and wealth. It reflects the ancient Israelite view of strength as both life-force and productive capacity, encompassing physical might, procreative power, and tangible substance.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct form (אוֹן) with 3ms pronominal suffix (־וֹ), yielding “his …”.
Rendering RationaleThe noun אוֹן denotes inherent strength, vitality, or generative power. As a masculine singular noun in construct form with a 3rd person masculine singular suffix, it specifically means “the vigor of him,” hence “his vigor,” preserving both the root sense of vital strength and the grammatical suffix.
