(1) i.q. مَدَّ to stretch out, to extend, see Hithpoel and the nouns מַד, מִדָּה, also מָדָה.

(2) to measure (Sanscrit mâ, mâd, to measure, Zend. meêtê, matê, Gr. μέτρον, μέδιμνος, Lat. metior, meta; Goth. mitan, Anglo-Sax. metan, Germ. meffen). Properly to measure the length of any thing with a line stretched out, Ezekiel 40:5, seq.; 41:1, seq.; hence also used of measures of quantity, as of corn, Ruth 3:15. Metaphorically Isaiah 65:7, “I will measure their deeds into their bosom,” i.e. I will repay to them what they deserve.

Niphal, pass. of No. 2, Jeremiah 31:37, 33:22.

Poel מוֹדֵד id. Here some refer Habakkuk 3:6, “(God) measures the earth with his eyes,” surveys it. But LXX. and Chald. render it, he shaketh the earth, from מוּד, Arab. Med. Ye, to be moved.

Hithpoel, הִתְמֹדֵד to stretch oneself out, 1 Kings 17:21.
