SIBI-P1 Translation H7628-01

in the captivity

Morphological NotesNoun, common, singular, absolute; prefixed preposition בַּ (in the) with assimilated definite article; no pronominal suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe noun שְׁבִי denotes the state or condition of being taken captive, derived from the root שבה (to capture, deport). The prefixed בַּ with definite article assimilation yields "in the," so the form means "in the captivity," preserving the singular abstract noun in absolute state.
