uprightness
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun in construct state (HNcmsc). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root קשט, conveying straightness and truth in speech or judgment. Rendered as "uprightness" to preserve the core idea of moral and factual straightness; the construct singular form does not change the base sense in isolation. |
