שָׁת: n.m. foundation, stay [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/tanakh/1513/8356/#m2)

**The whole BDB entry:** n.m. (AlbrZAW xvi (1896), 84) foundation, stay (of society) (√ שׁית Thes Köii. 1, 172);—pl. הַשָּׁתוֹת יֵהָרֵס֑וּן ψ 11:3 (prob. fig. of established usages, laws, etc., Jer. leges, Sym. θεσμοί, so Hup-Now Bae Che(1888) al.; \> Thes al. of nobles); Thes puts here also שָֽׁתֹתֶ֫יהָ Is 19:10 (so MT probably intends), which Ew Di Kit then interpret of working-classes, ‖ עֹשֵׂי שֶׂכֶר; but perhaps opp. of this, the upper classes, so as to include all ranks of society, Thes De CheComm.; CheHpt Buhl al. שֹׁתֶיהָ weavers of it (cf. Du Marti), v. III. שׁתה.
