unto them

Morphological NotesPreposition ל with archaic 3rd masculine plural pronominal suffix -מוֹ (HR/Sp3mp). Common in poetic and elevated biblical style as an alternative to לָהֶם.
Rendering RationaleThe form לָמוֹ consists of the preposition ל (“to/for/toward”) with the 3rd person masculine plural suffix -מוֹ, yielding “to them.” The rendering “unto them” preserves the directional force of ל and reflects the masculine plural third-person suffix indicated by HR/Sp3mp, while also echoing the elevated, poetic tone of this archaic form.
