SIBI-P1 Translation H1870-32
your paths
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, plural construct of דֶּרֶךְ with 2nd person masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root meaning "to tread, walk," and in the plural construct with a 2nd masculine singular suffix denotes multiple paths or courses belonging to or characterized by "you." "Your paths" preserves the concrete, trodden sense while allowing for extended meanings of conduct or course of life. |
