your shame

Rootבוש (b-w-š)
Core Meaningsshame, disgrace, humiliation, disappointment
Semantic Rangepersonal shame, public disgrace, humiliation, dishonor; by extension an object of shame, sometimes a euphemism for an idol
Conceptual SignificanceIn the Hebrew Bible, shame is both an internal feeling and an external condition of covenantal failure or dishonor before God and others. It often marks the consequence of unfaithfulness, idolatry, or defeat, highlighting the relational and communal dimensions of sin and disgrace.
Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun in construct form (בָּשְׁתְּ) with 2nd person masculine plural pronominal suffix (-כֶם), literally "the shame of you (mp)."
Rendering RationaleThe noun בֹּשֶׁת derives from the root בוש, "to be ashamed, to experience shame." The form is feminine singular in construct with a 2nd person masculine plural suffix, yielding "your (masculine plural) shame." The rendering preserves the core idea of disgrace inherent in the root while accurately reflecting the possessive suffix.
