your (own)
| Morphological Notes | Possessive adjective; second person singular; accusative feminine singular form, modifying a feminine singular noun in the accusative case. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form σὴν is the accusative feminine singular of the emphatic second-person possessive adjective σός, marking personal and intimate possession. "Your (own)" preserves the emphatic possessive force while remaining suitable for attributive use with a feminine singular noun. |
