'Restraining' in the Bible

for Jehovah restraining had restrained every womb of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.

that this is not to thee for a stumbling-block, and for an offence of heart to my lord -- either to shed blood for nought, or my lord's restraining himself; and Jehovah hath done good to my lord, and thou hast remembered thy handmaid.'

Restraining the noise of seas, the noise of their billows, And the multitude of the peoples.

In the abundance of words transgression ceaseth not, And whoso is restraining his lips is wise.
