upon death
The substantive form מוּת (mûth) denotes 'death,' specifically the cessation of life or the state resulting from dying. In the Psalms, particularly in the rare phrase מוּת לַבֵּן (muth labben), it appears as a liturgical or musical term, possibly the name of a song or tune meaning 'death of the son.' Elsewhere, as a verb (in other forms), it regularly means 'to die.' In the context of superscriptions in Psalms, its exact referent is debated, but it always relates to death as an event or state.
