SIBI-P1 H4581-12
my stronghold of strength
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun in construct form (מָעוּזִּי) with 1cs pronominal suffix (-י, "my"). The dagesh reflects assimilation in the suffixed form. Though in construct form morphologically, it functions as an absolute with pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מָעוֹז derives from the root עזז, conveying strength and prevailing might. As a masculine singular noun in construct form with a 1st person common singular suffix, it is rendered "my stronghold," explicitly marked as belonging to the speaker; the phrase "of strength" preserves the root’s core idea of might embedded in the term. |
