SIBI-P1 Translation H5435-01
their intoxicating drink
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun in construct state + 3rd person masculine plural suffix ("their"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun סֹבֶא derives from the root meaning "to drink heavily, to become drunk" and denotes an intoxicating beverage or the state of heavy drinking. As a masculine singular noun in construct with a 3rd person masculine plural suffix, it is rendered "their intoxicating drink," preserving both the root sense and the pronominal possession. |
