'Down' in the Bible

For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction which befell us in Asia, that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, insomuch that we despaired even of life:

He has also sealed us and given us the Spirit as a down payment in our hearts.

But to this day whenever Moses is read, a veil [of blindness] lies over their heart;

Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

We know that if the earthly tent we live in is torn down, we have a building in heaven that comes from God, an eternal house not built by human hands.

For we groan while we are in this tent, since we are weighed down, because we do not want to be unclothed, but clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

And the One who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave us the Spirit as a down payment.

Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;

(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

For if I boast some more about our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for tearing you down, I am not ashamed.

And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped his hands.

This is why I am writing these things while absent, that when I am there I will not use severity, in keeping with the authority the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.
