'Seek' in the Bible

Then she will pursue {her lovers}, but she will not overtake them; she will seek them and not find [them]; and she will say, "I will go and return to my first husband because [it was] better for me then than now."

Afterward the children of Israel will return and seek Yahweh their God and David their king. They will come in fear to Yahweh and to his goodness at the end of days.

With their flocks and herds they will go to seek Yahweh, but they will not find him; he has withdrawn from them.

{I will return again} to my place until they acknowledge [their] guilt and seek my face; in their distress they will search me.

The pride of Israel {testifies against him}-- they do not return to Yahweh their God; they do not seek him for all of this.

Sow for yourselves righteousness; {reap loyal love}. Break up for yourself fallow ground; [it is] time to seek Yahweh so he will come and rain righteousness upon you.
