SIBI-P1 H776-03

to her firmness

Morphological NotesFeminine noun (HNc) in singular construct state (bsc/bsa) with directional suffix /ה (Sd), appearing as אַרְצָה or אָרְצָה; the construct state links it to a following noun, and /Sd adds a 'to/toward' sense.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering 'to her firmness' preserves the root's core sense of 'firmness' from the unused root meaning 'to be firm,' while 'her' reflects the feminine gender of the noun and the dative/hebrew directional suffix /ה (indicated by /Sd), denoting motion or relation 'to/toward' the land; it maintains the singular construct form's relational nuance without generic translation.
