Brown-Driver-Briggs Expanded Definition

גָּאָה verb rise up (Aramaic Pe`al (ᵑ7 1 Samuel 2:5) & often Ethpe`el אֶתְגָּאֵי,

be boastful, proud, compare also Late Hebrew) —

Qal Perfect ׳ג Exodus 15:1,21, גָּאוּ Ezekiel 47:5; Imperfect יִגְאֶה Job 8:11; Job 10:16; Infinitive absolute גָּאֹה Exodus 15:1,21; —

2 grow up, of plants Job 8:11.

3 be lifted up, exalted, of head Job 10:16, of ׳י in triumph Exodus 15:1,21.

גאה (probably √ of following; Biblical Hebrew גָּאָה rise up).

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

גָּאָה fut. יִגְאָה a poetical word.

(1) to lift oneself up, to increase, used of water rising up, Ezekiel 47:5 of a plant growing, Job 8:11.- Job 10:16, וְיִגְאֶה כַּשַּׁחַל תְּצוּדֵנִי “and (if) it (my head) raise itself up, as a lion thou wouldest hurt me.”

(2) Metaph. to be exalted, magnificent, of God, Exodus 15:1, 21 Exodus 15:21. In the derivatives it is applied

(3) to honour (see גָּאוֹן No. 1 ), and

(4) to pride and arrogance, see גַּאֲוָה and גָּאוֹן No. 3. (Syr. Pael ܓܰܙܙܰ to decorate, to make magnificent. Ethpael, to boast oneself; ܓܶܐܐ, ܓܐܝܳܐ adorned, magnificent.) In the signification of pride, it accords with the Gr. γαίω.

Derivatives follow, except גֵּא, גֵּוָה No. II.
