'Gripped' in the Bible

Hearing of you the peoples were shaking in fear: the people of Philistia were gripped with pain.

But the evil-doers, all of them, will be like thorns to be pushed away, because they may not be gripped in the hand:

Cursed is he who has an argument with his Maker, the pot which has an argument with the Potter! Will the wet earth say to him who is working with it, What are you doing, that your work has nothing by which it may be gripped?
