The Key Word — רַבִּ֖ים, ra.Bimgenerated
The Hebrew word רַבִּ֖ים (rabim) means 'great' or 'many.' It is used here as an adjective to describe the severity of the illness that will afflict Jehoram. The parsing indicates it is an adjective, which modifies the noun חֳלִי (choliy), or 'sickness.' This word conveys a sense of abundance in severity, indicating that the illness will be not only serious but also prolonged.
The use of רַבִּ֖ים emphasizes the gravity of the situation, suggesting that the affliction will be overwhelming and persistent, affecting Jehoram's health deeply and continuously.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses the term severe to describe the illness. Other translations, such as the KJV and ASV, also use great, maintaining the sense of seriousness conveyed by רַבִּ֖ים.
Where translations differ, they do so primarily in the rendering of רַבִּ֖ים. The DRA opts for grievous, while others like the GNV and WEB stick with great.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse contains a main clause with the finite verb יֵצְא֤וּ (ye.tze'u, 'they will come out') as its focal point. The structure includes several phrases that elaborate on the subject's suffering and the nature of the illness.
The subject אַתָּ֛ה (attah, 'you') is explicitly stated, emphasizing the personal nature of the suffering. The prepositional phrases provide context for the illness, detailing its severity and the specific bodily affliction.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, the Hebrew רַבִּ֖ים is rendered as πονηρᾷ (ponēra), which means 'evil' or 'grievous.' This choice reflects a broader interpretation of the severity of the illness, suggesting not just physical suffering but also moral or spiritual implications.
The translation choices indicate a nuanced understanding of the affliction's impact, aligning with the overall theme of divine punishment.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
