SIBI-P1 Translation H7604-02
the one remaining
| Morphological Notes | Niphal participle, masculine singular absolute, with definite article; passive/reflexive verbal adjective meaning "the one who is left/remaining." |
| Rendering Rationale | The Niphal stem conveys the passive/reflexive sense "to remain" or "be left." As a masculine singular participle with the definite article, it is best rendered as a verbal adjective: "the one remaining," preserving both the remnant sense and participial force. |
