Exodus 21:8 יְעָדָ֖הּ he designated her

If she is displeasing in the eyes of her master who had designated her for himself, he must allow her to be redeemed. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, since he has broken faith with her.

Exodus 21:9 יִֽיעָדֶ֑נָּה he will designate her

And if he chooses her for his son, he must deal with her as with a daughter.

Exodus 25:22 וְנוֹעַדְתִּ֣י and I will meet

And I will meet with you there above the mercy seat, between the two cherubim that are over the ark of the Testimony; I will speak with you about all that I command you regarding the Israelites.

Here: In this passive-reflexive form the verb means 'to present oneself at an agreed place', to keep an appointment. God commits himself to a fixed meeting place, and the form points to a repeated, ongoing practice, not a single encounter.

Exodus 29:42 אִוָּעֵ֤ד I will meet

For the generations to come, this burnt offering shall be made regularly at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD, where I will meet you to speak with you.

But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.

Numbers 14:35 הַנּוֹעָדִ֖ים which has gathered

So Amasa went to summon Judah, but he took longer than the time allotted him.

Job 2:11 וַיִּוָּעֲד֣וּ and they met by appointment

Now when Job’s three friends—Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite—heard about all this adversity that had come upon him, each of them came from his home, and they met together to go and sympathize with Job and comfort him.

Here: They agreed to meet at a set time and place. The visit was planned and coordinated, not a chance meeting. It comes from the same root as *moʿed*, 'appointed time/meeting'.

Job 9:19 יוֹעִידֵֽנִי׃ will he summon me

If it is a matter of strength, He is indeed mighty! If it is a matter of justice, who can summon Him?

Here: 'Will summon me', meaning call someone to appear at an appointed time and place, as a court does. The ending '-nî' means 'me'. Most likely Job is quoting God's challenge: 'Who will summon me?'

Psalm 48:4 נֽוֹעֲד֑וּ they assembled

For behold, the kings assembled; they all advanced together.

Jeremiah 24:1 מוּעָדִ֕ים [were] set

After Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, as well as the officials of Judah and the craftsmen and metalsmiths from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon, the LORD showed me two baskets of figs placed in front of the temple of the LORD.

Here: 'Set in place' or 'appointed'. The form is passive: someone has deliberately put the baskets there. The verb's root has to do with appointed places and times, and the same root gives mo'ed, the 'appointed meeting' of the tent of meeting.

Jeremiah 47:7 יְעָדָֽהּ׃ ס he has appointed it

How can it rest when the LORD has commanded it? He has appointed it against Ashkelon and the shore of its coastland.”

Jeremiah 49:19 יֹעִידֶ֔נִּי will he summon me

Behold, one will come up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan to the watered pasture. For in an instant I will chase Edom from her land. Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this? For who is like Me, and who can challenge Me? What shepherd can stand against Me?”

Here: 'Who will summon me?' This is legal language: calling someone to appear in court on an appointed day. Job uses the same form of God (Job 9:19). No one can haul God into court to answer for this verdict.

Jeremiah 50:44 יוֹעִדֶ֔נִּי will he summon me

Behold, one will come up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan to the watered pasture. For in an instant I will chase Babylon from her land. Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this? For who is like Me, and who can challenge Me? What shepherd can stand against Me?”

Here: 'Who will summon me?': who can set God a date in court or call him to account, as one party summons another to trial. Job 9:19 uses the same phrase.

Ezekiel 21:16 מֻעָדֽוֹת׃ set

Slash to the right; set your blade to the left—wherever your blade is directed.

Amos 3:3 נוֹעָֽדוּ׃ they have met by appointment

Can two walk together without agreeing where to go?

Here: 'They have arranged to meet.' This is the verb behind the 'tent of meeting' and God's promise 'there I will meet with you' (Exod 25:22). The idea is a planned meeting: they arranged it beforehand, so they did not end up together by chance. It is not about two people sharing the same opinions.

Micah 6:9 יְעָדָֽהּ׃ he appointed it

The voice of the LORD calls out to the city (and it is sound wisdom to fear Your name): “Heed the rod and the One who ordained it.

Here: 'He appointed her/it.' The verb is used for fixing a time or meeting, or for assigning someone to a task. Oddly, the suffix 'her/it' is feminine while 'rod' is masculine. It may refer to the city (feminine), to the coming punishment, or it may be a sign that the text has been damaged.
