and defiled ones

Morphological NotesConjunction וּ + adjective masculine plural absolute (Aampa) from טָמֵא; functioning substantivally to denote persons characterized by impurity.
Rendering RationaleThe adjective טְמֵאִים is masculine plural absolute, here joined with the prefixed conjunction וּ (“and”). "Defiled ones" preserves the core sense of ritual contamination inherent in the root טמא and accurately reflects the masculine plural form indicated by the morphology.
