| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ (to/toward) + feminine singular noun יָד in construct state; no suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition לְ marks direction or relation ("to/toward"), and יַד in construct singular means "hand of." This preserves the concrete root image of the open hand as locus of agency, power, or control, without importing contextual interpretation. |
