SIBI-P1 Translation H5997-04
with his associate
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + masculine singular noun in construct state + 3rd person masculine singular suffix |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עָמִית denotes one joined or connected alongside another—an associate or fellow member of a community. The construct form with a 3ms suffix yields "his associate," and the prefixed ב is rendered here in its associative sense "with," preserving both morphology and root meaning. |
