in his associate-companion
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בַּ ("in") + masculine singular noun עָמִית in construct form with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix ("his"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עָמִית denotes one who is closely associated within a shared community. Rendering it as "associate-companion" preserves the root sense of mutual association, while "his" reflects the 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix and "in" reflects the prefixed preposition בַּ. |
