SIBI-P1 Translation H5869-11
in their eyes
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ + noun עַיִן (common, dual construct) + 3mp pronominal suffix; literally 'in the eyes of them.' |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition בְּ ('in') is prefixed to the construct dual עֵינֵי ('eyes of'), followed by the 3rd person masculine plural suffix ('their'), yielding 'in their eyes.' This preserves the concrete organ 'eyes' while allowing its perceptual sense inherent in the root. |
