'Entreating' in the Bible

Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him, “Do not delay in coming to us.”

Here, one night, Paul saw a vision. There was a Macedonian who was standing, entreating him and saying, "Come over into Macedonia and help us."

and certain also of the chief men of Asia, being his friends, having sent unto him, were entreating him not to venture himself into the theatre.
