his womb-belly

Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun in construct form (בִטְנֵי > בִטְן) with 3ms pronominal suffix ("-וֹ"), literally "belly/womb of him."
Rendering RationaleThe noun בֶּטֶן denotes the inner hollow of the body, especially the womb or belly. Rendering it "womb-belly" preserves the concrete image of an inner cavity, while "his" reflects the 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix attached to the feminine singular noun in construct form.
