'Off' in the Bible

Leave off, ye simple ones, and live; And walk in the way of understanding.

The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: Therefore leave off contention, before there is quarrelling.

As one that taketh off a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon soda, So is he that singeth songs to a heavy heart.

He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool Cutteth off his own feet, and drinketh in damage.

Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; And go not to thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: Better is a neighbor that is near than a brother far off.

Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint; But he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

There is a generation whose teeth are as'swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, To devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.
