**The whole BDB entry:** vb. only Pt. pl. מְיֻזָּנִים Je 5:8 Qr (מוּזָנִים v. זון); meaning dub. (comp. by Schu al. with Arabic وَزَنَ weigh, whence furnished with weights, i.e. testicles, but sense remote and very uncertain).

Why these entries: BDB: headword, part of speech agrees, 1 of its verses cited, 0 words shared with the glosses (3 candidates); OSHB: same consonants, part of speech agrees, 0 words shared with the BDB entry, 0 with the glosses (3 candidates)
