SIBI-P1 Translation H989-01
ceasing one
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Aramaic Peal (simple active), active participle, feminine singular absolute. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Peal active participle denotes one who is ceasing or in a state of stopping. Rendering it as "ceasing one" preserves the active participial force and reflects the feminine singular form without converting it into a finite verb. |
