SIBI-P1 Translation H6440-03

in her presence

Morphological NotesNoun, common, plural of extension in construct (פְּנֵי) + prefixed preposition בְּ (in) + 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix; functions prepositionally.
Rendering Rationaleפָּנִים derives from the root meaning "to turn" and denotes the outward-turned face or visible presence. With the prefixed בְּ ("in") and the 3rd feminine singular suffix in construct form, it yields "in her presence," preserving both the relational and possessive morphology.
