Genesis 25:29 עָיֵֽף׃ [was] exhausted

One day, while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the field and was famished.

Genesis 25:30 עָיֵ֖ף [am] exhausted

He said to Jacob, “Let me eat some of that red stew, for I am famished.” (That is why he was also called Edom.)

Deuteronomy 25:18 עָיֵ֣ף [were] exhausted

how they met you on your journey when you were tired and weary, and they attacked all your stragglers; they had no fear of God.

Judges 8:4 עֲיֵפִ֖ים [were] exhausted

Then Gideon and his three hundred men came to the Jordan and crossed it, exhausted yet still in pursuit.

Judges 8:5 עֲיֵפִ֣ים [are] exhausted

So Gideon said to the men of Succoth, “Please give my troops some bread, for they are exhausted, and I am still pursuing Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian.”

2 Samuel 16:14 עֲיֵפִ֑ים exhausted

Finally, the king and all the people with him arrived, exhausted. And there he refreshed himself.

2 Samuel 17:29 וְעָיֵ֥ף and weary

honey, curds, sheep, and cheese from the herd for David and his people to eat. For they said, “The people have become hungry, exhausted, and thirsty in the wilderness.”

Job 22:7 עָיֵ֣ף [the] weary

You gave no water to the weary and withheld food from the famished,

Here: Someone physically drained, typically from thirst, travel or heat. Here it means the parched traveller or labourer who arrives at your door spent. It is the thirsty counterpart of 'the hungry' in the next half-line.

Psalm 63:1 וְעָיֵ֣ף and weary

A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah. O God, You are my God. Earnestly I seek You; my soul thirsts for You. My body yearns for You in a dry and weary land without water.

Here: 'And exhausted', worn out, especially from thirst. Its masculine form does not match 'land', so it may describe the psalmist as much as the ground: a weary land and a weary man.

Psalm 143:6 עֲיֵפָ֖ה exhausted

I stretch out my hands to You; my soul thirsts for You like a parched land. Selah

Here: 'Exhausted, faint.' The word is used of people who are worn out, especially from thirst or hunger, so 'exhausted land' means ground spent for lack of water. Translations render it 'parched' or 'thirsty', which catches the idea, though the Hebrew word itself is about being worn out.

Proverbs 25:25 עֲיֵפָ֑ה weary

Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.

Here: Worn out and faint, especially from lack of water, the way a traveller in dry country is. That is why some translations say 'thirsty'.

Isaiah 5:27 עָיֵ֤ף [is] a weary [one]

None of them grows weary or stumbles; no one slumbers or sleeps. No belt is loose and no sandal strap is broken.

Isaiah 28:12 לֶֽעָיֵ֔ף to the weary

to whom He has said: “This is the place of rest, let the weary rest; this is the place of repose.” But they would not listen.

Here: “To the weary one”: someone worn out, drained, faint from hunger, thirst or toil. Here probably the exhausted common people, worn down by war, tribute and their own leaders.

Isaiah 29:8 עָיֵ֔ף [he is] faint

as when a hungry man dreams he is eating, then awakens still hungry; as when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking, then awakens faint and parched. So will it be for all the many nations who go to battle against Mount Zion.

Isaiah 32:2 עֲיֵפָֽה׃ weary

Each will be like a shelter from the wind, a refuge from the storm, like streams of water in a dry land, like the shadow of a great rock in an arid land.

Here: Exhausted from thirst and hunger. Esau came in 'faint' from the field (Gen 25:29). A land that is ʿayef is parched and gasping, as in Ps 63:1, 'a dry and weary land where there is no water'.

Isaiah 46:1 לַעֲיֵפָֽה׃ for a weary [animal]

Bel crouches; Nebo cowers. Their idols weigh down beasts and cattle. The images you carry are burdensome, a load to the weary animal.

Here: "For a weary [one]": the worn-out pack animal. The gods are a dead weight that tires out the animal carrying them.

Jeremiah 31:25 עֲיֵפָ֑ה [the] weary

for I will refresh the weary soul and replenish all who are weak.”

Here: Worn out to the point of fainting, especially from thirst and hunger, as when Esau came in from the field or a land is called "dry and weary". The word is feminine to agree with nefesh.
