SIBI-P1 Translation H7423-01

deceitful slackness

Morphological NotesFeminine singular common noun, absolute state; abstract noun derived from the root רמה.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering preserves the dual semantic force of רמה—active deception and culpable slackness—by combining deceit with negligence. As a feminine singular abstract noun, it denotes a quality or state rather than an action.
