  nuHmeyDaj may'luchDaj nIv je yIr qeylIS 
  Kahless gathered his weapons and his finest suit of armor. PB

ghunchu'wI' (8/21/2011):  This was used in a command for a warrior to gather his armor and weapons before a battle. Before seeing this word, I might have used {boS} "collect" to refer to packing for a trip. Now, {yIr} seems a better choice.
