This Aramaic-influenced verb appears only in Job 30:8, where Job describes the outcasts of society who were 'scourged out of the land.' The language is harsh and physical—not simply expelled but beaten out, struck down and driven away like animals. Job uses this striking imagery as he reflects on how these very outcasts, society's lowest, now mock him in his affliction. The verb's rare form (Niphal perfect) underscores the completed, irreversible nature of their expulsion.
