to their apartness

Morphological NotesPreposition לְ + masculine singular noun in construct (בַּד) + 3rd person feminine plural suffix; literally "to/for their separation."
Rendering RationaleThe noun בַּד in construct with a 3rd feminine plural suffix denotes "their separation/apartness," and the prefixed לְ adds the sense of "to" or "for." The rendering preserves the root idea of separation while reflecting the feminine plural possessive.
