**The whole BDB entry:** n.m. only pl. חַשְׁמַנִּים ψ 68:32; meaning unknown, 𝔊 𝔖 𝔙 ambassadors, Rabb. nobles, conject. from context; doubtless textual error.; NesJBL 1891, 152 proposes בשׁמנים they shall come with oils, ointments, Hilg Che (after Aq Jer) חָשִׁם hasting.

Why these entries: BDB: another headword, part of speech agrees, 1 of its verses cited, 0 words shared with the glosses, lists its Strong's number (1 candidates); OSHB: another headword, part of speech agrees, 1 words shared with the BDB entry, 0 with the glosses (1 candidates)
