SIBI-P1 Translation H6310-23
according to the mouth of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ prefixed to masculine singular construct noun פֶּה ("mouth of"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun פֶּה in construct singular means "mouth of," and the prefixed לְ adds the sense "to/according to." This preserves the root idea of the mouth as the source of utterance or emission, extended idiomatically to accord or measure. |
