'Taking' in the Bible

to drive out before you nations greater and stronger than you and to bring you in and give you their land as an inheritance, as is now taking place.

For the Lord your God is the God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God, showing no partiality and taking no bribe.

“Do not take a pair of millstones or an upper millstone as security for a debt, because that is like taking a life as security.
