'Back' in the Bible

“Get [skillful and godly] wisdom! Acquire understanding [actively seek spiritual discernment, mature comprehension, and logical interpretation]!Do not forget nor turn away from the words of my mouth.

On the lips of the discerning, [skillful and godly] wisdom is found,But discipline and the rod are for the back of the one who is without common sense and understanding.

The people curse him who holds back grain [when the public needs it],But a blessing [from God and man] is upon the head of him who sells it.

A man will be satisfied with good from the fruit of his words,And the deeds of a man’s hands will return to him [as a harvest].

Rescue those who are being taken away to death,And those who stagger to the slaughter, Oh hold them back [from their doom]!

Do not say, “I will do to him as he has done to me;I will pay the man back for his deed.”

A [shortsighted] fool always loses his temper and displays his anger,But a wise man [uses self-control and] holds it back.

The lion, which is mighty among beastsAnd does not turn back before any;
