| Morphological Notes | Qal active participle, masculine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal active participle masculine singular denotes a continual or characteristic action, describing a person marked by rejecting or spurning. "One who rejects" preserves the active, volitional force of the root מאס and reflects the participial form as a verbal adjective. |
