זָעַף fut. A.
(1) to be angry, followed by עַל Proverbs 19:3, עִם 2 Chronicles 26:19. (The original idea is either that of foaming, the same as זָעַם, compare the words of which the syllable sap is the common stock, see זָפָה : or else that of burning, compare Syr. ܙܥܰܦ Ethpe. to be burned, and the quadriliteral זַלְעַף.) [“The primary signification is either to breathe, to snuff up, (Sam. Ecc 10:1-20 id. comp. Ch. זַעְפָּא a strong wind,) or else, to burn.”]
(2) to be sad, to fret, to be morose (as to the connection of ideas see under the root עָצַב ). Part. זֹעֲפִים sad, Genesis 40:6, i.q. רָעִים verse Genesis 40:7; Daniel 1:10 (of the countenance, as having become thin and sad-looking through long fasting. Well rendered by Theod. σκυθρωπός, comp. Matthew 6:16). Hence
