'Lay' in the Bible

If you point out these instructions to the brothers and sisters, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, constantly nourished [through study] on the words of the faith and of the good [Christian] doctrine which you have closely followed.

Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.

Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
