ORIGINAL-LANGUAGE MAP

Which Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek words stand behind this KJV word?

These relationships come from exact verse + token-position mappings. We do not assume that one English spelling always equals one Strong's number. A single English token can also carry more than one source tag, so the Strong's-link total can exceed the number of English occurrences.

MIRE, verb intransitive To sink in mud, or to sink so deep as to be unable to move forward.

MIRE, noun An ant. [See Pismire.]
