| Morphological Notes | Qal active participle, masculine plural, construct state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal active participle masculine plural in construct denotes "the ones who are dwelling" in a relational ("of") form. "Dwelling-ones" preserves the participial, ongoing sense rooted in "to sit/to dwell," while the construct state is reflected by "of." |
