and willing-hearted nobles

Morphological NotesConjunction ו + adjective, masculine plural absolute; used substantively to denote noble or generous men.
Rendering RationaleThe masculine plural adjective נְדִיבִים functions substantively, describing men characterized by willing generosity and elevated status. The conjunction וּ adds "and," and "willing-hearted nobles" preserves both the root sense of voluntary generosity and the plural masculine form.
