2 transitive

a. draw forth from womb (subject ׳י) Psalm 22:10 (where read גָּחִ֫י participle from גּוּחַ, or regard גֹּחִי as metaplastic, as if from ג֗֗֗חח? see De & Che^{critical note}) compare Psalm 71:6; also

b. thrust forth, bring forth, rather ' break forth (with that which is to be born),' figurative of travail, applied to Jerusalem in distress Micah 4:10 (compare Sta^{§ 599 b} Kö^{i. 505}); burst forth with rivers (figurative of Pharaoh under image of תַּנִּים) Ezekiel 32:2, but for בנהרותיך ( rivers) read probably בִּנְחִרוֺתֶיךָ Job 41:12 ( nostrils), i.e. snort with thy nostrils, so Ew Co; on figurative then compare Job 41:11-13.
