SILEX v2

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)

and valley of

Same as P1No — adjusted for context
RationaleRemoved 'deep-set' from P1; the Hebrew עֵמֶק refers generically to a valley, and the context does not specify 'deep-set.' Keeping 'and valley of' maintains the original sense without unnecessary specification.
