- This word's sole tagged occurrence falls in Psalm 5:3, whose own "cry" sense sits in the preceding half of that psalm's opening plea rather than in the specific English clause sampled here ("I will present my prayer to You and be on the watch"); the gloss "cry" is drawn from the word's own listed sense.
