Rendering Rationaleבֶּגֶד is a masculine singular noun (absolute or construct) meaning a garment. Rendering it as "a covering-garment" preserves the singular form and highlights the underlying root idea of covering and covert action from בגד (to act treacherously), maintaining the semantic link between clothing and concealed or deceptive action.
