SIBI-P1 H205-01
emptiness-wickedness
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcfsa). No pronominal suffix; denotes an abstract quality or condition. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אָוֶן is a feminine singular absolute form denoting a state or quality. Its root conveys the idea of emptiness or futile exertion that results in trouble or moral corruption. "Emptiness-wickedness" preserves both the sense of moral evil and the underlying concept of hollow, destructive vanity inherent in the root. |
