and a rock
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ prefixed to a common masculine singular noun (absolute or construct). No definite article present; number and gender are singular masculine. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun צוּר is masculine singular, appearing here with the prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). Rendering it as "a rock" preserves the concrete image of a solid, firm cliff or stone, reflecting the root sense of compressed strength and stability, while maintaining masculine singular form. |
