| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + preposition מִן (assimilated to מֵ) + noun masculine singular absolute. |
| Rendering Rationale | The masculine singular noun חָרוּץ can denote gold as something cut out or extracted, reflecting the root idea of incision. The prefixed conjunction וּ and preposition מֵ are preserved as "and from," yielding a root-faithful rendering. |
