SIBI-P1 Translation H2656-02
your desired things
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural noun in construct state (חֲפָצֵי) with 2nd person masculine singular pronominal suffix (ךָ). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun חֵפֶץ denotes that which is desired or delighted in; in the masculine plural construct with a 2ms suffix it signifies multiple objects belonging to or associated with the addressee—thus, "your desired things." This preserves both the object-oriented nuance and the plural possession. |
