'Annoy' in the Bible

For this reason the Jews began to persecute Jesus continually because He was doing these things on the Sabbath.

Therefore it is my judgment that we do not trouble and make it difficult for those who are turning to God among the Gentiles [by putting obstacles in their way],

but the former preach Christ [insincerely] out of selfish ambition [just self-promotion], thinking that they are causing me distress in my imprisonment.
