7 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “give” →
And Satan answered the LORD , and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?
Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance?
Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost.
Let me not, I pray you, accept any man’s person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man.
For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away.
Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.
