mightily

Morphological NotesAdverb (HD); indeclinable particle used to intensify adjectives, verbs, or clauses. It does not vary for gender, number, or person and often functions as an adverbial accusative of degree.
Rendering Rationaleמְאֹד is an indeclinable adverb (HD) derived from a root conveying strength or force. Rendering it as "mightily" preserves the underlying sense of intensity or strength rather than the flatter English "very," while accurately reflecting its adverbial (non-gendered, non-numbered) form.
