SIBI-P1 Translation H5583-01
strengthening ones
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic verb, Pael stem, active participle, masculine plural, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Pael stem conveys intensive or active strengthening, and the masculine plural active participle denotes those who are actively providing support. "Strengthening ones" preserves both the intensive nuance and the plural participial form. |
