'Sat' in the Bible

“Gilead remained across the Jordan;And why did Dan stay in ships?Asher sat at the seashore,And remained by its landings.

Then the angel of the Lord came and sat under the oak that was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite as his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press in order to save it from the Midianites.

So both of them sat down and ate and drank together; and the girl’s father said to the man, “Please be willing to spend the night, and let your heart be merry.”

They turned aside there in order to enter and lodge in Gibeah. When they entered, they sat down in the open square of the city, for no one took them into his house to spend the night.

So the people came to Bethel and sat there before God until evening, and lifted up their voices and wept bitterly.
