SIBI-P1 H5164-01
a relenting
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in the absolute state; derived from the verbal root נחם, expressing the state or act of relenting or repentance. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root נחם (n-ḥ-m), which conveys the idea of a deep emotional turning—sorrow that leads either to regret or to comfort. As a masculine singular absolute noun (HNcmsa), it is rendered as the singular "a relenting," preserving both its nominal form and its sense of a decisive turning or desistance. |
