of the sojournings
A place of sojourning; a temporary dwelling or residence, especially used of places where one lives as a foreigner or guest among non-native people; by extension, a settlement or habitation, with nuance often on the impermanent or non-native status of the inhabitant. This term is frequently associated with the experience of not being an established landholder or citizen, but rather living as an outsider among other peoples.

sojourning-dwellings of
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine plural, construct state (מְגוּרֵי) from מָגוּר. |
| Rendering Rationale | The plural construct form denotes multiple places characterized by sojourning. "Sojourning-dwellings" preserves the root גור and its nuance of temporary, outsider residence, while "of" reflects the construct state. |
