This is exact English-word usage from the canonical KJV token index, not a Strong's estimate.

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.

'Tis past enduring.

6. To give occasion for labor to. I will not trouble you to deliver the letter. I will not trouble myself in this affair.

7. To sue for a debt. He wishes not to trouble his debtors.

TROUBLE, noun trub'l. Disturbance of mind; agitation; commotion of spirits; perplexity; a word of very extensive application.

3. Uneasiness; vexation.

4. That which gives disturbance, annoyance or vexation; that which afflicts.
