| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural common noun in construct state with 1st person singular pronominal suffix ("my"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun דָּבָר denotes something spoken or declared, and in the masculine plural construct with a 1st person singular suffix it means "utterances of me." "My utterances" preserves the speech-derived core sense while reflecting the plural form and possessive suffix. |
