SIBI-P1 Translation H1293-13
according to the blessing of
| Morphological Notes | Prefixed preposition כְּ (“according to/as”) + feminine singular construct noun בִּרְכַּת from בְּרָכָה. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun בִּרְכַּת is feminine singular construct of בְּרָכָה, denoting a bestowal of favor or blessing; the prefixed כְּ adds the sense of comparison or conformity (“according to” or “as”). The rendering preserves both the construct relationship (“of”) and the root-derived idea of bestowed favor. |
