In the other Testament 2 words

ἔρχομαι érchomai · G2064 · to come, to go, coming: Greek ἔρχομαι renders Hebrew אָתָה in contexts of coming/arrival, representing a direct translation equivalent for the basic motion-toward sense shared across both languages.
φέρω phérō · G5342 · to carry, to bear, to take along: φέρω emphasizes the action of bearing/carrying something toward a destination, capturing the brought-object sense of אָתָה's causative uses ("bring"), while אָתָה's primary intransitive sense ("come") falls outside φέρω's core semantics.

Move002002001012: אֲתָה describes physical coming or bringing, as officials coming to speak with the Jews about the temple's rebuilding (Ezra 5:3) and the temple vessels being brought out at Belshazzar's feast (Daniel 5:2).
Happen002002003003: This code is inherited from the shared root's idiom of something "coming upon" someone as happening to them, not independently attested by אָתָה (ʼâthâh, H858)'s own 16 citations, which are all literal physical movement.
