for a ritual slaughter-offering
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ + masculine singular common noun, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun זֶבַח denotes a slaughtered animal presented in ritual sacrifice; rendering it as "ritual slaughter-offering" preserves the root sense of slaughter as the core act. The prefixed לְ is reflected by "for," and the masculine singular absolute form is maintained as a singular count noun. |
