Morphological NotesPreposition ל (lamed, "to/for") + 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix; HR/Sp3mp. Functions as an indirect object, marker of direction, possession, or advantage.
Rendering RationaleThe form consists of the preposition ל ("to/for") prefixed to the third-person masculine plural pronominal suffix הם ("them"). The rendering preserves the directional sense of ל and explicitly reflects the masculine plural person and number indicated by Sp3mp.
