'Counts' in the Bible

“He has also kindled His wrath [like a fire] against meAnd He considers and counts me as one of His adversaries.

‘Behold, God finds pretexts against me;He counts me as His enemy.

“He considers iron as straw,Bronze as rotten wood.

Though while he lives he counts himself happy and prosperous—And though people praise you when you do well for yourself—

He counts the number of the stars;He calls them all by their names.

In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South (the Negev), in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hand of the one who counts them,’ says the Lord.

“I will make you pass under the rod [as the shepherd does with his sheep when he counts them, and I will count you as Mine and constrain you] and bring you into the bond of the covenant [to which you are permanently bound].
