𐤀𐤋𐤄𐤉/𐤄
ʼĕlôhîym
of her gods
A term referring to deity or divine beings; most frequently used as a designation for Israel's god, but also applied more broadly to other gods, supernatural beings, or exalted persons (such as judges or rulers) depending on context. In most instances with the article or in reference to the Israelite god, the term denotes the singular divine figure worshiped by the Israelites. Occasionally, especially in poetic or archaic contexts, it refers to multiple gods. The form is morphologically plural but can function grammatically as singular or plural, depending on context.

her mighty ones
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural common noun in construct state (אֱלֹהֵי) with 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix (-הָ), from אֱלֹהִים. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun is morphologically masculine plural in construct with a 3rd feminine singular suffix, yielding "her mighty ones." Rendering it as "mighty ones" preserves the root sense of strength and awe rather than defaulting to a context-specific theological title. |
