(probably from Persian 
Lane2640); Ethiopic 
Late Hebrew כִּיס; Aramaic כִּיסָא, 
, Palmyrene מן כיסה from his purse = at his own expense, Vog p. 13 and others) — bag, in which were carried: a. weights (see אֶבֶן 5) Deuteronomy 25:13; Micah 6:11; Proverbs 16:11;
b. money, i.e. a purse Isaiah 46:6; Proverbs 1:14.
כִּיִּר, [כִּיר], כִּירַיִם see below I. כור.
כִּישׁוֺר see below כשׁר.
כָּ֫כָה see below כה above
כִּכָּר see below כרר; כֹּל see below I. כלל.
כִּיס m. contr. from כֵּנֶס from the root כָּנַס, like כּוֹס (which see), and כֹּנֶס a purse, bag (Syr. and Arab. id.), in which money was kept, Proverbs 1:14; Isaiah 46:6 and in which traders were accustomed to carry about their weights for weighing goods (see Chardin, Voyage, tom. iii. p. 420), Deuteronomy 25:13; Micah 6:11. Hence אַבְנֵי כִיס, Proverbs 16:11.
[“(2) a cup, i.q. כּוֹס Proverbs 23:31, כ׳.”]
