| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural noun in construct (דִבְרֵי) + 2nd masculine plural pronominal suffix (כֶם) with prefixed preposition כְּ (“according to/as”). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun דָּבָר in the plural construct with 2nd masculine plural suffix denotes "your utterances" or "your spoken matters." The prefixed כְּ adds the comparative sense "according to" or "in accordance with," preserving both root meaning and morphology. |
