SIBI-P1 Translation H5668-08
for your sake
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun in construct (עֲבוּר) with 2nd person feminine singular pronominal suffix; functioning prepositionally to mark cause or purpose. |
| Rendering Rationale | The construct form עֲבוּר with a 2nd feminine singular suffix yields a prepositional expression meaning 'for the sake of you.' This preserves its causal/purposive force derived from the passive participial form of עבר while explicitly reflecting the feminine singular suffix. |
