and to the afflicted-poor ones

Root	ענה (ʿ-n-h)
Core Meanings	to afflict, to humble, to be bowed down, to be oppressed
Semantic Range	poor, needy, afflicted, oppressed, humbled, socially lowly
Conceptual Significance	עָנִי highlights those bowed down by circumstance—economically, socially, or spiritually. In biblical theology, the עניים are often the objects of YHWH’s compassion and justice, representing those who depend on divine deliverance rather than worldly power.
Morphological Notes	Conjunction ו ("and") + preposition ל ("to/for") + adjective עניים, masculine plural absolute of עָנִי, functioning substantively.
Rendering Rationale	The adjective עניים is masculine plural absolute, used substantively to describe those who are in a state of affliction or humbling. The rendering "afflicted-poor ones" preserves the root idea of being bowed down or oppressed (ענה) while reflecting the masculine plural form; the prefixed ו and ל are represented by "and to."
