and your pains
| Root | עצב (ʿ-ṣ-b) |
| Core Meanings | pain, hurt, grief, toil, shaping, forming |
| Semantic Range | physical pain, emotional grief, sorrow, burdensome labor, grievous effort, that which causes distress |
| Conceptual Significance | עֶצֶב often expresses the burden and sorrow bound up with human labor and suffering, especially in a fallen world (cf. Genesis 3). It reflects the experiential dimension of toil marked by pain, highlighting both physical hardship and inner grief in Israel’s theological worldview. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun common masculine plural construct (עֲצָבֵי) with prefixed conjunction וְ and 2ms pronominal suffix ךָ, yielding "and your pains/toils." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עֶצֶב derives from the root עצב, conveying pain, hurt, or grievous toil. The form is masculine plural in construct with a second masculine singular suffix, hence "your pains," with the conjunction waw rendered as "and." This preserves both the root sense of distressing labor or sorrow and the plural possession addressed to a male individual. |
