'Thing' in the Bible

The sons of Carmi: Achar, the troubler of Israel, who committed a trespass in the devoted thing.

All the assembly said that they would do so; for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

This was a small thing in your eyes, God; but you have spoken of your servant's house for a great while to come, and have respected me according to the estate of a man of high degree, Yahweh God.

Now, Yahweh, you are God, and have promised this good thing to your servant.

Joab said, "May Yahweh make his people a hundred times as many as they are. But, my lord the king, aren't they all my lord's servants? Why does my lord require this thing? Why will he be a cause of guilt to Israel?"

God was displeased with this thing; therefore he struck Israel.

David said to God, "I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing. But now, put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly."
