Strong's Hebrew · H3535

H3535 kibsâh

כִּבְשָׂה

kib-saw'

(ewe) lamb.

Looking for Greek G3535 Nineuḯ? It has the same number in Strong's Greek lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of H3535. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.

When kibsâh is spoken over you, Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against Scripture with people you trust, and return to it in a year.

When kibsâh is spoken over you

Words like this one get spoken over people: in a prayer line, in a message from a friend, in a moment nobody planned. The lexicon gives you what kibsâh means. What God is saying to you through it is yours to record and weigh.

Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against verses like Numbers 6:14 with people you trust, and return to it in a year to see what came of it.
