'Retained' in the Bible

Jeroboam no longer retained his power during Abijah’s reign; ultimately, the Lord struck him and he died.

In the first year of King Cyrus, he issued a decree concerning the house of God in Jerusalem: Let the house be rebuilt as a place for offering sacrifices, and let its original foundations be retained. Its height is to be 90 feet and its width 90 feet,

If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”
