Hurriers

Morphological NotesProper noun (HNp), masculine plural form with the -ים ending; derived from the verbal root חוּשׁ (ḥ-w-sh), "to hasten." Though used as a personal name, its form is grammatically masculine plural.
Rendering RationaleThe form חֻשִׁים carries the masculine plural ending -ים, reflecting a masculine plural noun derived from the root חוּשׁ ("to hurry, hasten"). Rendering it as "Hurriers" preserves both the core sense of swiftness inherent in the root and the masculine plural morphology indicated in the proper noun form.
