- Speak002004001009008
- Daniel 2:23 recounts Daniel's prayer, “To You, God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, For You have given me wisdom and power.”
- Praise002004001009009
- The same verse, Daniel 2:23, also carries this word's Praise-domain sense, Daniel's own “praise” offered to God alongside his thanks.
- Move002002001012
- This Move code is inherited from the shared lemma-cluster grouping with the Hebrew form (יָדָה (yâdâh, H3034)), whose unrelated homonymous “to throw; to shoot” sense is well attested; this word's own occurrences are all the verb of giving thanks or praise, never throwing or shooting.
