SILEX v2

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)

mighty one

Same as P1No — adjusted for context
RationaleP1 'toward' is an error; the context and Strong's H410 require 'mighty one' (a title for God); singular because it is a self-declaration. Maintains SILEX root-faithfulness.
P1 Flagwrong root: P1 mapped to preposition 'to/toward' rather than H410 'mighty one'.
