their rejecting
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, infinitive construct with 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal infinitive construct expresses the act of rejecting in its simple active sense, and the 3rd person masculine plural suffix marks the subject as "their." The rendering preserves both the verbal force and the possessive suffix. |
