SIBI-P1 H5771-12

his perversity

Rootעוה (ʿ-w-h)
Core Meaningsto bend, twist, distort, pervert
Semantic Rangemoral crookedness, iniquity, guilt, culpability, the consequence or punishment of wrongdoing
Conceptual Significanceעָוֹן expresses not merely an act of sin but the state of moral distortion and the burden of guilt that follows. It often carries the idea that wrongdoing bends what is right and results in enduring liability, sometimes extending to the punishment borne by the offender.
Morphological NotesCommon noun, masculine singular construct with 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix: "his." The construct form binds the noun to the suffix, expressing possession.
Rendering RationaleThe noun עָוֹן derives from the root עוה, conveying the idea of something twisted or morally distorted. Rendering it as "perversity" preserves this sense of moral crookedness, while the possessive "his" accurately reflects the singular noun in construct form with a 3rd person masculine singular suffix (HNcbsc/Sp3ms).
