for rightness
| Root | צדק (ts-d-q) |
| Core Meanings | rightness, justice, conformity to a standard, moral integrity, legal equity |
| Semantic Range | rightness, justice, legal equity, moral integrity, vindication, just cause, righteous order |
| Conceptual Significance | צֶדֶק expresses alignment with the moral and legal order established by YHWH. It encompasses both ethical conduct and judicial fairness, reflecting covenantal faithfulness and the proper ordering of society under divine standards. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ ("to/for") prefixed to a masculine singular common noun in the absolute state (Ncmsa). No pronominal suffix; singular, masculine form maintained. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun צֶדֶק is a masculine singular absolute form meaning "rightness" or "justice," derived from the root צדק. The prefixed לְ preposition conveys direction or purpose ("to/for"), so "for rightness" preserves both the root sense of conformity to what is right and the singular grammatical form. |
