'Try' in the Bible

He told them, "Keep on struggling to enter through the narrow door, because I tell you that many people will try to enter, but won't be able to do so.

Another said, "I bought five pairs of oxen, and I'm on my way to try them out. Please excuse me.'

So he told them, "You try to justify yourselves in front of people, but God knows your hearts, because what is highly valued by people is detestable to God.
