SIBI-P1 Translation H3820-04
in my inner core
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + masculine singular construct noun לֵב + 1st person common singular suffix; "in my heart/inner core." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun לֵב derives from the root לבב, referring to the inner core or center of a person. The construct form with first person singular suffix ('my') plus the prefixed preposition ב ('in') yields "in my inner core," preserving both root sense and morphology. |
