'Grew' in the Bible

When Israel grew strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not utterly drive them out.

And Gilead's wife also bore him sons; and when his wife's sons grew up, they thrust Jephthah out, and said to him, "You shall not inherit in our father's house; for you are the son of another woman."

And the woman bore a son, and called his name Samson; and the boy grew, and the LORD blessed him.
