SIBI-P1 H4159-05

for a conspicuous wonder-sign

Morphological NotesMasculine singular common noun in the absolute state (Ncmsa) with prefixed preposition לְ (“to/for/as”). No pronominal suffix; singular form preserved in translation.
Rendering RationaleThe noun מוֹפֵת denotes something striking or extraordinary that stands out as a sign. Rendering it "conspicuous wonder-sign" preserves the root sense of something made prominent or remarkable, while the prefixed לְ is reflected by "for," and the masculine singular absolute form is conveyed by the singular noun "sign."
