from lawbreaking men
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן (assimilated as מֵ) + masculine plural adjective/noun absolute רְשָׁעִים. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun רְשָׁעִים is masculine plural, denoting men characterized by active wrongdoing; the prefixed מֵ indicates separation ('from'). "Lawbreaking men" preserves the root sense of violating covenantal or social law while reflecting the masculine plural form. |
