in bitterness
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ ("in") prefixed to masculine singular adjective מַר, functioning substantivally in construct form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective מַר (bitter) from the root מרר is used here with the prefixed preposition בְּ, forming an adverbial or substantival sense. Rendering it as "in bitterness" preserves the root idea of a state or condition characterized by bitterness while reflecting the masculine singular form. |
