SIBI-P1 Translation H5869-62

from your eyes

Morphological NotesPreposition מִן ("from") + common noun עַיִן in dual construct form + 2nd person masculine singular pronominal suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe noun עַיִן in the dual construct form עֵינֵי with a 2ms suffix denotes "your two eyes," and the prefixed מִן adds "from." The rendering preserves the anatomical sense rooted in seeing and perception while reflecting the dual form and masculine singular suffix.
