and your sojourning-resident

Morphological NotesConjunction וְ + noun גֵּר (common masculine singular construct) + 2ms pronominal suffix ךָ; literally "and the sojourner of you."
Rendering RationaleThe noun גֵּר derives from the root גור, meaning to sojourn or reside temporarily as an outsider. Rendering it "sojourning-resident" preserves this sense of one who dwells among a people without native status. The form is masculine singular with a 2ms pronominal suffix and prefixed conjunction, hence "and your" followed by a singular term.
