| Root | אמר (ʾ-m-r) |
| Core Meanings | to say, to speak, to utter, to declare |
| Semantic Range | words, sayings, utterances, speech, declarations, poetic expressions |
| Conceptual Significance | Often used in poetic and wisdom literature, אִמְרֵי highlights the weight and intentionality of spoken words—especially divine utterances—emphasizing that speech carries authority, revelation, and covenantal significance in the biblical worldview. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural noun in construct state from אֵמֶר (ʼêmer); appears before a genitive complement ("sayings of …"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אֵמֶר derives from the root אמר (“to say, speak”) and denotes something spoken. The form אִמְרֵי is masculine plural in the construct state (HNcmpc), so “sayings of” preserves both the plural sense and the relational construct (“of”), maintaining the connection to spoken utterance. |
