Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

נָשַׂג not used in Kal, prob. i.q. נָסַג, סוּג, שׂוּג to recede. Hence

Hiphil הִשִּׂיג

(1) prop. to cause to recede from a place; hence to remove landmarks (i.q. הִסִּיג), Job 24:2.

(2) to move to, as the hand to the mouth, 1 Samuel 14:26 a sword, Job 41:18. Hence

(3) to move oneself to, i.e. to reach, to attain unto, to overtake any one, Genesis 31:25; 2 Samuel 15:14 as to time, Genesis 47:9. “My hand has attained to something,” often i.q.

In some passages to reach some one is spoken of joy, Isaiah 35:10, 51:11 a blessing, Deuteronomy 28:2 or, on the contrary, terrors, Job 27:20 guilt, Psalms 40:13 the wrath of God, Psalms 69:25.
