| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, active participle, masculine plural, construct state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal active participle masculine plural expresses "those who find," and the construct state requires a following complement, hence "finders of." This preserves the root sense of discovering or encountering while reflecting the masculine plural participial form. |
