his apportioned share

Rootחלק (ḥ-l-q)
Core Meaningsdivision, apportionment, distribution, smoothness
Semantic Rangeportion, share, allotment, inheritance, assigned territory, destiny, benefit, flattery (in extended sense of smoothness)
Conceptual Significanceחֵלֶק often denotes one’s assigned inheritance or divinely allotted destiny, especially in covenantal contexts where YHWH is described as the "portion" of His people or where land is distributed by lot, underscoring themes of divine sovereignty and provision.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct form (חֶלְק) with a 3ms pronominal suffix (וֹ), yielding "his share/portion."
Rendering RationaleThe noun חֵלֶק derives from the root חלק, which conveys the idea of dividing or apportioning. "His apportioned share" preserves this core sense of something divided out or allotted, while accurately reflecting the masculine singular noun with a third masculine singular pronominal suffix ("his").
