'Bend' in the Bible
For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
Arise, O Jehovah, go before his face, Cause him to bend. Deliver my soul from the wicked, Thy sword,
He trains my hands for war;my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
The wicked take out a sword and bend the bow, to bring down the humble and the poor to slay those who are righteous in conduct.
Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:
And the anger of God hath gone up against them, And He slayeth among their fat ones, And youths of Israel He caused to bend.
Come in, we bow ourselves, and we bend, We kneel before Jehovah our Maker.
