to counsel, consider carefully with oneself
This Niphal verb, a loanword from Aramaic, means to take counsel with oneself or deliberate internally. Nehemiah 5:7 uses it when the governor says 'my heart counseled me'—he engaged in careful internal deliberation before confronting the nobles about exploiting the poor. The reflexive Niphal form emphasizes self-consultation rather than seeking external advisors.

1. sense 1 — Nehemiah's internal deliberation in 5:7 uses this Aramaic borrowing for serious self-counsel. While English and Spanish render it 'counseled' (English 'counseled', Spanish 'consultó'), the Hebrew idiom 'my heart counseled me' depicts an inner dialogue where Nehemiah weighed the situation before acting against the nobles' injustice. 1×
