in the valleys
A low-lying stretch of land, often broad and enclosed by higher terrain, typically referring to valleys distinguished by their fertile, cultivated nature. The term is generally used to denote larger, more expansive valleys as opposed to narrow gorges. In various contexts, עֵמֶק appears both as a common noun and as part of proper place names signifying fertile, inhabited regions distinguished from uplands or arid ravines.

SIBI-P1 Translation H6010-03
in the deep valleys
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב ("in") with definite article (contracted to בָּ) + masculine plural common noun, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עֵמֶק denotes a deeply set, low-lying valley derived from the root meaning "to be deep." The masculine plural absolute form עֲמָקִים with prefixed בָּ ("in the") yields "in the deep valleys," preserving both plurality and the spatial depth inherent in the root. |
