to daughters-of
Female offspring; a daughter, a female descendant. More broadly, a female member of a family, community, or group; can be used collectively for women of a city or nation. Figuratively, it denotes dependency, belonging, or characteristic association (e.g., 'daughters of Zion' = women, inhabitants, or symbolic representations of Zion). Employed for city populations ('daughter of cities'), subordinate towns, or associated groups. It frequently appears in anthropomorphic metaphors, especially for personified cities or nations. In some figurative uses, the term can refer to a dependent, offshoot, or subordinate entity (e.g., a village as a 'daughter' of a larger city). Occasionally used in idioms or set phrases, such as 'daughter of the eye' for 'pupil of the eye.'

to daughters of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ + noun, common feminine plural construct of בַּת. |
| Rendering Rationale | בְּנוֹת is the feminine plural construct of בַּת ("daughter"), here with the prefixed לְ ("to/for"). The construct form requires a following genitive, hence "daughters of," preserving feminine plural and relational morphology. |
