according to the mouth of

Morphological NotesPreposition כְּ + masculine singular construct noun פֶּה ("mouth").
Rendering RationaleThe construct masculine singular noun פִּי (from פֶּה, "mouth") with prefixed כְּ ("as/according to") yields the idiomatic sense "according to the mouth of," preserving the root image of the mouth as the source of utterance or command. The construct state requires a following genitive relationship ("of ...").
