| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וַ + proper noun, masculine singular; noun formation from אבד indicating a realm or state of destruction. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אֲבַדּוֹן derives from the root אבד and denotes a state or realm characterized by perishing and annihilation. The prefixed conjunction וַ is preserved as "and," and the rendering highlights its sense as a realm of utter destruction rather than merely a proper name. |
