מֵת֑/וֹ
𐤌𐤕/𐤅
mûwth
his dead
To die, to cease living; to come to the end of life through natural, violent, or judicial means. Functions both as an intransitive verb (to die, to perish) and, in derived stems, as a causative (to put to death, to kill). The semantic range extends metaphorically to describe the loss of vitality, the end of lineage, or spiritual death, and is used idiomatically for expressing certainty ('to surely die').

his dead one
| Morphological Notes | Qal active participle, masculine singular, construct state with 3rd person masculine singular suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal active participle masculine singular of מות functions substantivally to denote one who has died ('dead one'). The construct form with a 3ms pronominal suffix yields 'his dead one,' preserving both number and possession. |
