Exegesis
The phrase ke-nega nirah li ba-bayit {כְּנֶגַע נִרְאָ֥ה לִ֖י בַּבָּֽיִת | ke-ne-ʿāʿ nir-ʾāh lī ba-bā-yît} employs the preposition kaf as a simile marker and a Niphal perfect passive to express perception. English rendering follows a Subject–Verb–Object order to maintain clarity while preserving Hebrew legal-report structure.
