SIBI-P1 Translation H5771-28
in twisted-guilts of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + common noun feminine plural construct |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עֲוֺנֹת is the feminine plural construct of עָוֺן, derived from the root meaning "to twist" or "distort." Rendering it as "twisted-guilts" preserves the root imagery of distortion and the plural form, while the prefixed ב marks "in," and the construct state is reflected by "of." |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
in the guilt of
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'in twisted-guilts of' is unnecessarily interpretive; 'guilt' or 'iniquity' is sufficient. The construct form supports 'in the guilt of'. |
