and reliability
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + common noun, feminine singular absolute. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אֶמֶת derives from אמן, conveying firmness and dependable stability; "reliability" preserves this root sense of that which is solid and trustworthy. The prefixed conjunction וְ is reflected by "and," and the feminine singular absolute form is maintained as a singular abstract noun. |
