the horns
Horn (the hard, projecting bony structure of animals, especially rams, bulls, and goats); by extension, horn-shaped object or feature, including flasks and vessels, corners or projections (such as those of an altar), and peaks (especially prominent points of mountains or hills). Figuratively, 'qeren' is also used for symbolic references to strength, dignity, power, and status, typically in poetic or prophetic passages. Occasionally denotes rays of light due to visual resemblance (as in Exodus 34:29-35).

horns of
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common; plural; construct state; no pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root meaning "to project" and denotes projecting horns or horn-like features. The plural construct form requires a genitive relationship, hence "horns of" to reflect its bound state. |

the horns
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | Context requires the definite 'the horns' (not construct), as the altar had definite horns; P1 did not include the article. |
