'Forcing' in the Bible

Surely the churning of milk produces butter,And wringing the nose produces blood;So the churning of anger produces strife.

“Please inquire of the Lord for us, because Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon is making war against us. Perhaps the Lord will deal [favorably] with us according to all His wonderful works and force him to withdraw from us.”

He shrewdly exploited our race and mistreated our fathers, forcing them to expose their [male] babies so that they would die.
