powers

Rootאון (ʾ-w-n)
Core Meaningsstrength, vigor, potency, substance, wealth, generative power
Semantic Rangephysical strength, generative vigor, material wealth, stored resources, forceful capacity, manifestations of might
Conceptual Significanceאוֹן often denotes the inherent strength or substance of a person, nation, or resource, including both physical vigor and material wealth. In biblical theology, such "powers" ultimately derive from YHWH, who grants or removes human strength and substance according to His sovereign will.
Morphological NotesMasculine plural absolute noun from אוֹן (H202/H205). The form אוֹנִים carries no pronominal suffix and denotes multiple instances or manifestations of strength, substance, or force.
Rendering RationaleThe noun אוֹנִים is masculine plural absolute (HNcmpa), so the rendering preserves its plural force as "powers." This reflects the root idea of strength or potency inherent in אוֹן while maintaining the grammatical masculine plural form.
