v. 7b – The construct chain צֹ֣אן יָד֑וֹ has a semantic relationship of entity-manner. See, e.g., NIV "the flock under his care"; EÜ die Herde, von seiner Hand geführt ("the flock led by his hand"); TOB le troupeau qu'il garde ("the herd which he guards"). Alternatively, it could be understood as possession-possessor, as the probably intended by the NET "the sheep he owns."
