"to be brought, seized or snatched away" (Genesis 18:4, etc.; Genesis 27:9; Genesis 42:16 1 Samuel 4:3 1 Kings 17:10, etc.); twice of nasa', "to lift up" (2 Chronicles 12:11, the American Standard Revised Version "bare"; Job 36:3); of bo', "to come in" (2 Chronicles 1:17 Nehemiah 8:15); of `alah, "to cause to come up" (1 Samuel 6:21; 1 Samuel 7:1); of yatsa', "to cause to come out" (Numbers 20:10, the American Standard Revised Version "bring forth"; Jeremiah 26:23), and of a number of other words.
