SIBI-P1 Translation H1697-60
from their spoken matters
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural noun in construct state (דִּבְרֵי) + 3mp pronominal suffix; prefixed preposition מִן (“from”). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun דִּבְרֵי is masculine plural construct of דָּבָר, here with a 3rd person masculine plural suffix (“their”) and prefixed מִן (“from”). Rendering it as “spoken matters” preserves the root sense of something declared or expressed while reflecting the plural and possessive morphology. |
