and his pride
Majestic self-exaltation, proud bearing, or overwhelming greatness; frequently denotes pride (in a negative ethical sense), grandeur or splendor (of God, nations, or nature), sometimes extending to the concrete aspect of adornment or prominent feature (e.g., of the Jordan's flood). It conveys both the concept of human pride or arrogance and the manifestation of majesty, especially in poetic or prophetic contexts.

SIBI-P1 Translation H1347-12
and his loftiness
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + masculine singular noun in construct state + 3rd person masculine singular suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun גָּאוֹן denotes the state or quality of being exalted or elevated, whether in pride or majesty. Rendering it as "loftiness" preserves the root sense of rising or being high, while the construct form with 3ms suffix and prefixed conjunction yields "and his loftiness." |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
and his pride
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'Geon' here refers to pride as a negative trait, so 'and his pride' follows the SILEX sense and context better than 'and his loftiness.' |
