𐤌𐤅𐤕/𐤉
mâveth
of my death
Death; the cessation of life, whether by natural or violent means. Also denotes the state or condition of being dead and, by extension, the abstract idea or realm of death. In poetic and prophetic literature, māveth can personify death as a force or power. The word may also refer to pestilence or catastrophic destruction in metaphorical contexts. It is not confined merely to biological death but expresses the resulting state, the realm associated with it, and, at times, the power that death represents.

my death
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun in construct state with 1st person common singular suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מָוֶת derives from the root מות, "to die," and denotes the state or condition of death. In construct with the 1st person singular suffix, it expresses possession or relation, hence "my death," preserving both the root sense and the pronominal morphology. |
