3 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “given” →
All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for meat to relieve the soul: see, O LORD , and consider; for I am become vile.
The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath abhorred his sanctuary, he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces; they have made a noise in the house of the LORD , as in the day of a solemn feast.
We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
