In this case, there is no particular reference.

I'm merely interested in the word's range of meaning, and whether it's changed over time.

What I should have asked was whether this word (spelled exactly as written here כבדי ) means "impaired" in modern Hebrew, and whether it once meant "honored" in ancient Hebrew?

If you could answer that question, I'd appreciate it.

Mike, if you really want answers to questions like this, you’re going to have to give us the reference.

Does כבדי mean impaired?
