דַּי
subst. sufficiency, enough (NH, but not known in other cogn. languages)—cstr. דֵּי, with sf. (v. infr.) דַּיֶּ֑ךָּ, דַּיָּם
absol. thrice only Malachi 3:10 I will pour you out a blessing עֵד־בְּלִי־דָֽי until there is not sufficiency, i.e. until my abundance can be exhausted, or, as this can never be, for ever (cf. Psalms 72:7), Esther 1:18 וּכְדַי בִּזָּיוֹן וָקָ֑צֶף and (there will be) as enough (i.e. in plenty) contempt and wrath, II Chronicles 30:3 לְמַדַּי = לְמַה־דַּי for what was sufficient. With a gen. of the person or thing for which anything suffices: Exodus 36:5 מִדֵּי הָעֲבֹרָה (more) than enough for the work, Leviticus 5:7 and if his hand do not reach (if he do not command) דֵּי שֶׂה enough for (i.e. to buy) a lamb, Leviticus 12:8; Leviticus 25:28 דֵּי הָשִׁיב לוֹ enough for recovering it, Deuteronomy 15:8 דֵּי מַחְסֹרוֹ enough for his need, Isaiah 40:16(×2). With suff. Proverbs 25:16 אֱכֹל דַּיּ֑ךָּ eat that which is sufficient for thee; דַּיָּם Exodus 36:7 Jeremiah 49:9 Ob v Obadiah 1:5. Once with gen. of the thing which is sufficient, Proverbs 27:27 דֵּי חֲלֵב עִזִּים enough of goats’ milk.
Combined with בְּ, כְּ, and especially מִן, דַּי (דֵּי) has a tendency to form compound prepositions, used idiomatically in certain applications:—
בְּדֵי (a) for (the בְּ pretii) what suffices for: Nahum 2:13 the lion tare in pieces בְּדֵי גֹרוֹתָיו for the need of his whelps (‖ לְלִבְאֹתָיו; but? כְּדֵי, v. b); iron. Habakkuk 2:13 Jeremiah 51:58 the peoples labour בְּדֵי־אֵשׁ for fire (only to satisfy the fire), and the nations weary themselves בְּדֵי־רִיק for what is empty. (β in the abundance of, i.e. as often as Job 39:25 בְּדֵי שׁוֹפָר in the abundance of the trumpet, i.e. as often as the trumpet sounds (מִדֵּי elsewhere in this sense).
כְּדֵי according to the sufficiency, or abundance, of Leviticus 25:26 and find כְּדֵי גְאֻלָּתוֹ according to the sufficiency of his redemption, i.e. as much as it demands, Deuteronomy 25:2 Nehemiah 5:8 כְּדֵי בָנוּ (st. c. before בְּ: Ges§ 130, 1) ‘quantum in nobis erat,’ after our ability, Judges 6:5 they came כְּדֵי אַרְבֶּה לָרֹב according to the abundance of the locust in multitude (for which כָּאַרְבֶּה לָרֹב would ordinarily be said: cf. Judges 7:12).
מִדֵּי out of the abundance of, hence as often as;—(a) sq. inf. I Samuel 1:7 מִדֵּי עֲלֹתָהּ = as often as she went up, Judges 18:30 I Kings 14:28 (= II Chronicles 12:11) II Kings 4:8 Isaiah 28:19 מִדֵּי עָבְרוֹ as often as it passeth over, Jeremiah 31:20; (β) sq. subst., Jeremiah 48:27 מִדֵּי דְבָרֶיךָ בּוֹ as often as thy words (are) of him; and in the idiom. phrases מִדֵּי שָׁנָה בְּשָׁנָה = yearly (a combination of מִדֵּי שָׁנָה and שָׁנָה בְּשָׁנָה: v. sub שָׁנָה) I Samuel 7:16 (v. Dr) Zechariah 14:16 II Chronicles 24:5; and מִדֵּי חֹדֶשׁ בְּחָדְשׁוֹ Isaiah 66:23 as often as month (comes) in its month (i.e. in its own time: חֹדֶשׁ made more precise by the add. of בְּחָדְשׁוֹ; cf. the phrase דְּבַר יוֹם בְּיוֹמוֹ): so מִדֵּי שַׁבָּת בְּשַׁבַּתּוֹ ib.; (γ) as conj., with the finite verb (אֲשֶׁר being understood: cf. בַּעֲבוּר etc.), Jeremiah 20:8 מִדֵּי אֲדַבֵּר as often as I speak.
