in your presence
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ + noun פָּנִים (common, plural of extension, construct state) + 2nd person masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun פָּנִים (surface/face, presence) in construct with a 2ms suffix means "your face/presence," and the prefixed בְּ adds the sense "in/at." The rendering preserves the relational, spatial force derived from what is turned outward toward someone. |
