1. testimonies, decrees (of God) — The feminine plural of edah meaning 'testimonies' or 'decrees,' referring to God's covenant stipulations and laws. All four clusters represent the identical meaning with only pronominal suffix and prepositional variation. S122513 'your testimonies' (Arabic shahadatika, Korean dangsin-ui jeunggeodeul, Swahili shuhuda zako), S122514 'his testimonies' (Arabic shahadatihi, Swahili shuhuda zake), S122515 'the testimonies' with the article (Arabic ash-shahadat, Swahili shuhuda), and S122519 'my testimonies' (Arabic wa-shahadati, Swahili shuhuda yangu). The possessive suffixes are grammatical inflections of the same underlying sense — God's authoritative covenant testimonies — and should be merged into one lexicographic sense. 22×
