her rejoicing
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun in construct form with 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מָשׂוֹשׂ denotes the state or cause of rejoicing derived from the root שׂוּשׂ (“to rejoice”). Rendering it as “her rejoicing” preserves the verbal energy of the root and reflects the masculine singular noun in construct with a 3rd feminine singular suffix. |
