SIBI-P1 Translation H5061-04
the affliction-mark
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun נֶגַע denotes the result of being struck or touched with force—an inflicted mark or lesion—so "affliction-mark" preserves both the concrete sense of a visible mark and the root idea of impact. The definite article הַ is reflected by "the," and the singular absolute form is maintained. |
