SIBI-P1 Translation H4794-01
in their running
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + feminine singular construct noun מְרוּצָה + 3mp pronominal suffix ('their'). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מְרוּצָה denotes the act or course of running, derived directly from the root רוץ ('to run'). The feminine singular construct with 3rd person masculine plural suffix yields 'their running,' and the prefixed ב marks location or sphere, hence 'in their running.' |
