עֵדוּת • ('edút) f (plural indefinite עדויות / עֵדֻיּוֹת, singular construct עֵדוּת־, plural construct עדויות / עֵדֻיּוֹת־)

1. testimony, report (of a witness)
   • Tanach, Psalms 81:5, with translation of the Jewish Publication Society:

     עֵדוּת בִּיהוֹסֵף שָׂמוֹ בְּצֵאתוֹ עַל־אֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם שְׂפַת לֹא־יָדַעְתִּי אֶשְׁמָע׃

     'edút bihoséf samó b'tseitó 'al-'érets mitsráyim s'fát lo-yadá'ti 'eshmá'.
     ʿēḏūṯ bīhōsēp̄ śāmō bəṣēṯō ʿal-ʾéreṣ miṣrā́yim śəp̄aṯ lō-yāḏáʿtī ʾešmāʿ.

     He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, when He went forth against the land of Egypt. The speech of one that I knew not did I hear:

   • 2011 May 6, “עדויות: לפחות 6 הרוגים ועשרות פצועים ברחבי סוריה” (eduyot: l'fakhót 6 harugím va'asarót p'tsu'ím b'rakhavéi súrya, “Witnesses: At least 6 killed and tens injured across Syria”), in Haaretz.
