'Detain' in the Bible

Next morning, at daybreak, He left the town and went away to a solitary place; but the people flocked out to find Him, and, coming to the place where He was, they endeavoured to detain Him that He might not leave them.

But--not to detain you too long--I beg you in your forbearance to listen to a brief statement from us.
