Brown-Driver-Briggs Expanded Definition

I. [זָלַל] verb shake (Arabic

slip,

agitate, shake;

be agitated, quake, especially of earth-quake) —

Niph`al Perfect נָזֹ֫לּוּ shake, quake Isaiah 63:19 of mountains at ׳י s presence (Ges De Che Di Du; ᵐ5ᵑ9 as if from נזל flow down); so Isaiah 64:2 (but here probably not original Che Di Du); read נָזֹלּוּ likewise Judges 5:5 (ᵐ5 Thes Stu Be Bl MV SS; ᵑ0נָָֽזְלוּ, from נזל).

II. [זָלַל] verb 1. be light, worthless,

2 make light of (Assyrian zalâlu, be in ruins, COT^Gloss (Assurnasirpal^{Standard Inscr. 15}), Arabic = Aramaic (rare), easy; but זְלַל, , are more common (all intransitive)) —

Qal only Participle active זוֺלֵל Deuteronomy 21:20 2t.; זוֺלֵלָ֑ה Lamentations 1:11; plural זוֺלְלִים Proverbs 28:7, construct זֹלְלֵי Proverbs 23:20 —

1 be worthless, insignificant Jeremiah 15:19 (opposed to יָקָר) Lamentations 1:11 (of Jerusalem in distress).

2 transitive make light of = be lavish with, squander (compare II. זוּל), especially of gluttony בשׂר׳ז Proverbs 23:20 ("" סֹבְאֵי יַיִן), absolute Proverbs 23:21; Deuteronomy 21:20 (both "" סֹבֵא), Proverbs 28:7.

Hiph`il Perfect suffix הִזִּילוּהָ Lamentations 1:8 causative of Qal 1 make light of, despise (opposed to כִּבֵּד); on form compare Ges^{§ 67}, R. 8 Rob-Ges, MV SS (> assigned to זוּל by Thes Kö^{Lgb. i. 471}).

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

זָלַל answering to the German fchüttern, fchütteln, fchütten, to shake (kindred with דָּלַל and the words there compared).

(1) to shake, to make tremble, see Niphal.

(2) to pour out, to shake out (hence, to lavish), (ausfchütten, ausfchütteln). Part. זוֹלֵּלּ a squanderer, a prodigal, Proverbs 23:21, 28:7 Deuteronomy 21:20; Proverbs 23:20, זוֹלְלֵי בָשָׂר “those who squander (or, are prodigals as to) their own body,” voluptuous profligates. Comp. זוּל. And as we only cast out and throw away those things which we count worthless, hence

(3) intrans. to be abject, worthless, vile. Jeremiah 15:19; Lamentations 1:11. (Arab. ذَلَّ id., ذُلُّ vileness, abjectness of mind. Syr. ܙܰܠ to be vile.) See Hiph.

Niphal, נָוֹל (comp. as to this form Lehrg. § 103, note 7), to be shaken, to tremble. Isai. 64:2, מִפָּנֶיךָ הָרִים נָזֹלּוּ “the mountains tremble before thy face.” The passage, Jud 5:5, הָרִים נָזְלוּ is to be similarly understood, for נָֽזְלוּ is there used for נָזֹלּוּ Lehrg. 103, note 15. Well rendered by the LXX. ἐσαλεύθησαν (the root זלל agreeing in etymology with σάλος, σαλεύω), and the Ch. and Syr. express the same (Arab. زَلْزَلَ to shake the earth, زَلْزَلُ an earthquake). See זַלְזִלִּים.

Hiphil (pointed according to the Chaldee form), הִזִּיל causative of Kal No. 3, to despise. Lamentations 1:8. [“See the root זוּלּ.”]
