STRONGS H7280: Abbreviations

† רָגַע verb disturb (Late Hebrew Hiph. move to and fro; perhaps transposed from Arabic bdb092009

disturb, Ba^{ES 8}); —
Qal Perfect Job 26:12 בְּכֹחוֺ רָגַע הַיָם; Participle construct (Ges^{65d. 116 g. x}), Jeremiah 31:35 = Isaiah 51:15 רֹגַע הַיָם וַיֶהֱמוּ גַלָּיו.
Hiph. denominative from רֶגַע make a twinkling, only 1st person singular Imperfect cohortative וְעַד אִרְגִּ֫יעָה לְשׁוֺן שָׁ֑קֶר and while I would twinkle (= only for a moment: compare Job 20:5) is the false tongue opposed to תִּכּוֺן לָעַד, Proverbs 12:19 (compare De); and כִּי אִרְגִּ֫יעָה. אֲרִיעֶנּוּ מֵעָלֶיתָ I will twinkle and (= I will in a moment, Ges^{§ 120 g}; compare Hi) chase them away from it, Jeremiah 49:19 = Jeremiah 50:44. (Ba^{§ 86 as substantive} = רֶגַע, of the very rare type ’aqtîl; ה-; as Ges^{§ 90 f.})
† II. רָגַע verb be at rest, repose (probably = Arabic bdb092101

return, properly return to rest, after wanderings, etc.); —
Niph. imperative 2nd person feminine singular Jeremiah 47:6 (of sword) be gathered into thy scabbard, הֵרָֽגְעִי וָדֹ֫מִּי repose, and be still.

ἐγγίζει ταχύ).

b. intransitive rest, repose, Deuteronomy 28:65 ובגוים ההם לא תַרְגִּיעַ, Isaiah 34:14 שָׁם הִרְגִּ֫יעָה לִילִית. So Ecclus 36:31.

III. רָגַע verb harden (Ethiopic bdb092102

coagulate, congeal: possibly a special development of √ bdb092103

see II. ר׳); — Job 7:5 רָגַע עוֺרִי וַיִמָּאֵס my skin hardens, and (then) runs again (II. מָאַס), of the ulcers in elephantiasis.
