for a bitter one
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, masculine singular absolute (Ams a), from מָר; prefixed with לְ preposition (“to/for”). Derived from the root מרר. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective מָר is masculine singular absolute, here preceded by the preposition לְ (“for/to”). Rendering it as “for a bitter one” preserves its adjectival force, masculine singular form, and its connection to the root מרר, which conveys bitterness both literal and figurative. |
