SIBI-P1 Translation H6310-53
and according to mouth-of
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + preposition ל + masculine singular construct noun פֶּה ("mouth"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun פֶּה in masculine singular construct form (פִי) retains its core sense of "mouth" as the source of utterance or emission. With the prefixed conjunction ו and preposition ל, it yields the idiomatic sense "according to the mouth of," preserving both the root imagery of emission/speech and the construct relationship. |
