fettered ones
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Aramaic Pael stem, passive participle, masculine plural, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Pael passive participle masculine plural denotes those who have been intensively bound or fastened. "Fettered ones" preserves the root sense of physical restraint and reflects the passive, plural form. |
