| Morphological Notes | Qal infinitive construct of יָשַׁב with 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal infinitive construct of יָשַׁב expresses the verbal idea of "sitting" or "dwelling" as a noun; with the 3rd feminine singular suffix it becomes "her dwelling," preserving both the core sense of settled presence and the possessive morphology. |
