By me I have sworn

By me I have sworn

I swear. I bind myself to stand by my words (“by me” also serves as a plea or supplication).

(“By me I have sworn: from my mouth has gone forth righteousness, a word that shall not return; that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear” – Isaiah 45:23; and also: “The land—by me I have sworn, to you alone I have given it all, from Dan to the Red Sea!” – Haim Hefer / Hey Southward to Eilat)

בִּי נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי

Definition (Hebrew)

אֲנִי נִשְׁבָּע. אֲנִי מַשְׁבִּיעַ אֶת עַצְמִי לַעֲמֹד בִּדְבָרַי (״בִּי״ מַשְׁמָעוֹ גַּם מִלַּת תַּחֲנוּן).

("בִּי נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי יָצָא מִפִּי צְדָקָה דָּבָר וְלֹא יָשׁוּב, כִּי לִי תִּכְרַע כָּל בֶּרֶךְ תִּשָּׁבַע כָּל לָשׁוֹן" – יְשַׁעְיָהוּ מ״ה כ״ג, וְכֵן: "אֶת הָאָרֶץ, בִּי נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי,/ רַק לָכֶם כֻּלָּהּ נָתַתִּי-/ מִדָּן וְעַד יַם סוּף!" – חַיִּים חֵפֶר / הַי דְּרוֹמָה לְאֵילַת)
