Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

אֵמֶר in sing. only with suff. אִמֵרוֹ Job 20:29, pl. אֲמָרִים constr. אִמְרֵי (for the sing. abs. is used the form אֹמֶר)

(1) a word, discourse, i.q. דָּבָר but only in poetic language, except Joshua 24:27. Used especially of the words of God אִמְרֵי־אֵל Numbers 24:4, 16 Numbers 24:16 אִמְרֵי אֱמֶת Proverbs 22:21 אִמְרֵי נֹעַם Proverbs 15:26 Ps. 19:15 Proverbs 6:2, etc. Genesis 49:21, “Naphtali is אַיָּלָה שְׁלוּחָה a slender hind, הַנֹּתֵן אִמְרֵי שֶׁפֶר who utters fair words,” i.e. pleasant, persuasive words, which may be referred to some poetic talent of the Naphtalites, although it is otherwise unknown. If any one objects that words cannot properly be attributed to a hind, it is to be observed, that הַנֹּתֵן refers to Naphtali and not to אַיָּלָה a hind, and therefore we do not need the conjecture of Bochart, who followed the LXX., reading אֵילָה and אֲמִרֵי. [“For this use of the art. ה, see Heb. Gram. §107, init.”]

(2) a command, mandate. Job 20:29 נַחֲלַת אִמְרוֹ מֵאֵל “the lot of his command from God.” Comp. אָמַר No. 3.
