SIBI-P1 Translation H5869-19
there is not
| Morphological Notes | Negative existential particle (HTn); used to negate existence or presence. |
| Rendering Rationale | The particle אֵין expresses absolute non-existence or absence rather than simple prohibition. Rendering it as "there is not" preserves its function as a negation of existence rather than a verbal negation. |
