to pour out, melt; liquid being poured or metal being smelted from ore
The verb describes pouring out liquid or melting solid material. Job 28:2 speaks of smelting copper from stone—melting ore into metal. Job 29:6 recalls prosperity when 'the rock poured out streams of oil beside me,' a metaphor for abundant blessing. Isaiah 26:16 is textually uncertain but likely involves pouring out whispered prayers under distress. The Spanish translations distinguish 'derramaba' (poured out) from 'funde' (melts/smelts), recognizing both the metallurgical and liquid contexts. The imagery moves from industrial process to poetic abundance to desperate petition.
Senses
1. sense 1 — Job's poetry dominates, using metallurgy and flowing abundance as images of God's creation and blessing. The 'stone pouring out copper' (28:2) captures the smelting process, while 'rock pouring oil' (29:6) describes past prosperity in hyperbolic terms. Isaiah's occurrence is disputed textually, but likely involves pouring out prayer. The multilingual glosses show uncertainty (brackets in German and French), reflecting textual and semantic challenges. The core meaning involves liquid emission, whether molten metal, flowing oil, or whispered words. 3×
