your trodden path
| Root | דרך (d-r-k) |
| Core Meanings | to tread, to march, to walk, to journey, to bend (a bow) |
| Semantic Range | road, path, journey, manner of life, conduct, custom, course of action, direction |
| Conceptual Significance | "Way" is a central biblical metaphor for one’s manner of life before God. It can denote literal travel or one’s moral and spiritual course, contrasting the righteous path with the way of the wicked and expressing covenant faithfulness through one’s lived walk. |
| Morphological Notes | Common noun, singular construct (דַּרְכְּ־) with 2nd masculine singular pronominal suffix (-ךָ), yielding "your path/way." The noun is common gender in form but here singular and possessed. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun דֶּרֶךְ derives from the root דרך, "to tread" or "to march," indicating a path formed by walking. Rendering it as "trodden path" preserves the concrete sense of a way shaped by movement. The construct form with a 2nd masculine singular suffix ("-ךָ") is accurately reflected by "your" addressing a single male. |
