し is a past-tense ending that's only used to modify nouns (連体形-only). So it's the same as 信仰された者. >信仰される thesaurus.weblio.jp/content/信仰される >人々から神聖なものとして尊ばれること
信仰されし者 that which was worshiped as holy

I've only been studying for two weeks, retard. You really are a brainless if you expect someone to have made that much progress in the first two weeks.
Luke Martin
and I know I said "a brainless" instead of just "brainless", I had been going to say "a brainlet" and decided to say "brainless" instead and made a small mistake.
The k->n shift in 齧 could be some kind of voice or aspect marker or something. But it's obviously closer to 丯 than to 丰, which is MC /pʰɨoŋ/, OC /*pʰoŋ/, and phonetically related to 邦, 棒, etc.

What?

Middle Chinese (spoken from the Chinese 南北朝 period until the 宋) and Old Chinese (spoken around the Chinese 戦国 period) have been phonetically reconstructed. Because there was no good way of recording the sounds of the language phonetically at the time, it's mostly an educated guess based on borrowings into Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese and on ancient rhyming dictionaries that showed which characters rhymed with which but not exactly how they sounded.
丯 was used in 㓞 as a phonetic component, which later morphed into 契, and then 㓞 and 契 were further used as phonetic components in more characters. But the language was constantly shifting, so they don't always sound exactly alike, just similar.
Japanese 音読み readings are typically borrowed from Middle Chinese, and you can see the similarity there as well: 丯 - カイ 契 - ケイ, キツ, ケツ 齧 - ケツ, ゲツ
丰 - フウ, ホウ, ボウ 邦 - ホウ 棒 - ボウ, ホウ
The "ŋ" sound at the beginning of 齧 is articulated in the same place as "k," it's just nasalized, so the jump isn't a stretch. And the Japanese apparently interpreted it as a "k" sound anyway.
