Near; Nigh

From BiblePortal Wikipedia

Near; Nigh [1]

nēr , nı̄ (chiefly קרוב , ḳārōbh , "to draw near," קרב , ḳārabh  ; ἐγγύς , eggús ): Used of proximity in place (  Genesis 19:20;  Genesis 45:10;  Exodus 13:17;  Psalm 22:11;  John 3:23 , etc.), time ( Jeremiah 48:16;  Ezekiel 7:7;  Ezekiel 30:3;  Mark 13:28 ), or kinship ( Leviticus 21:2; Rth 3:12), but also employed of moral nearness. Yahweh is "nigh" to them that are of a broken heart ( Psalm 34:18 ). God draws nigh to His people, and they to Him ( James 4:8 ). The antithesis is God's "farness" from the wicked.
