A great many Hebrew words are in the Old Testament translated "get," "got," etc. The word "get" has two meanings: (1) with the idea of movement, "to go," etc.; (2) with that of acquisition, "to gain," "obtain," etc. (1) In the first sense the most frequent words are bō' , "to come, or go in" ( Genesis 45:17; 1 Samuel 22:5 , etc.); yālakh "to go on" ( Genesis 12:1; Genesis 22:2; Exodus 5:4; Jeremiah 5:5 , etc.); yāradh , "to go down" ( Genesis 42:2; Joel 3:13 ); ‛ālāh , "to go up" ( Genesis 44:17; Isaiah 40:9; Jeremiah 49:31 , etc.). Other words are nūdh , "to move off" ( Jeremiah 49:30 the King James Version; Daniel 4:14 ); nāsā' , "to remove" ( Numbers 14:25 ); yācā' , "to go out" ( Genesis 19:14; Genesis 31:13; Exodus 11:8 ). (2) In the sense of acquisition , the words most frequently translated "get," etc., are ‛āsāh , "to do," "to make" ( Genesis 12:5; Genesis 31:1; Deuteronomy 8:17 , Deuteronomy 8:18 ); ḳānāh , "to get," "obtain" ( Genesis 4:1; Proverbs 4:5 , Proverbs 4:7; Ecclesiastes 2:7 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "bought"; Jeremiah 13:1 , the Revised Version (British and American) "buy"); mācā' "to find" ( Numbers 31:50; 2 Samuel 20:6 ); rākhash , "to acquire," "gain" ( Genesis 31:18; Genesis 36:6 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "gathered"; Genesis 46:6 ).
Getting is the translation of pō‛al ( Proverbs 21:6 ), of kīnyān "obtaining" ( Genesis 31:18; Proverbs 4:7 , the English Revised Version text and the American Standard Revised Version margin "all thou hast gotten"). In the New Testament "get" in the first sense is the translation of exérchomai , "to go out or forth" ( Luke 13:31; Acts 7:3; Acts 22:18 ); of éxeimi , "to go out or forth" ( Acts 27:43 ); of katabaı́nō , "to go down" ( Acts 10:20 ); hupágō , "to go away or under," "Get ... behind" ( Matthew 16:23; Luke 4:8 the King James Version, "Get ... hence"; Matthew 4:10 ). The only separate word translated "get" in the second sense is heurı́skō , "to begin to find" (usually translated "find") ( Luke 9:12 the King James Version, "that they may go ... and get victuals").
For "get" the Revised Version (British and American) has "mount" ( Deuteronomy 28:43 ), "buy" ( Proverbs 17:16; Jeremiah 13:1; Jeremiah 19:1 ); for "get you down" ( Joel 3:13 ), "tread ye," margin "get you down"; "get" for "possess" ( Luke 18:12 ); "get them away" for "gather themselves together" ( Psalm 104:22 ); "get us" for "apply" ( Psalm 90:12 ); "let us get grain" for "therefore we take up corn for them," and for "that we might buy corn" ( Nehemiah 5:2 , Nehemiah 5:3 ); "get you no" for "provide neither" ( Matthew 10:9 ); "getteth prudence" for "is prudent," margin "dealeth prudently" ( Proverbs 15:5 ); "getteth" for "coveteth" ( Habakkuk 2:9 ).
