'Pursuit' in the Bible

When all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves in the hill country of Ephraim heard that the Philistines had fled, they too pursued them closely in the battle.

The sons of Israel returned from their pursuit of the Philistines and plundered their camp.

whereas Israel, [though always] pursuing the law of righteousness, did not succeed in fulfilling the law.

And when the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who had given birth to the male Child.
