and his words
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + masculine plural noun in construct state + 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from דבר, meaning "to speak" or "declare," and in the masculine plural construct with a 3ms suffix denotes "his words" or "his spoken matters." The prefixed conjunction ו adds "and," preserving the full morphology of the form. |
