Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct form with 1st common singular suffix ("-i"), functioning as a possessed noun: "my violence."
Rendering RationaleThe noun חָמָס denotes violence or ruthless wrongdoing rooted in the idea of destructive injustice. The form is masculine singular with a first common singular pronominal suffix, so "my violence" accurately preserves both the core meaning of the root and the possessive "my" indicated by the morphology.
