him
| Morphological Notes | Direct object marker particle אֵת with 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix; functions as definite accusative pronoun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The base particle functions as a direct object marker; with the 3rd masculine singular suffix it forms an accusative pronoun meaning "him" as the definite, marked object of action. The rendering preserves the pronominal morphology while reflecting its object-marking force. |
