SIBI-P1 H5358-01
by avenging
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + Qal infinitive construct (Vqc) of נָקַם; no gender, number, or person marking due to infinitive form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form בִּנְקֹם consists of the preposition ב ("by, in") attached to the Qal infinitive construct of נָקַם ("to avenge, take vengeance"). Rendering it as "by avenging" preserves the simple active sense of the Qal stem and reflects the prepositional construction indicated in the morphology. |
