You answered the question in the first email:

bej and na' slang are defined as "be sure, be definite, be positive, be certain".

It means all those things, so {jIbej} must mean "I am certain" as "I am sure". The extra glosses are there for clarification purposes.

I can't express it adequately in english.

When we say a fact is certain, we mean that the fact is certain; it is actual, it can't be disputed.

When we say jIbej, does it mean "I am certain", as in "I'm sure", or would it mean "I'm actual, undisputed, etc ?"
