צָעַד
(1) to step, to go on slowly and with state (fchreiten, einherfchreiten) as is done in a solemn procession, 2 Samuel 6:13 compare Jeremiah 10:5 hence used of Jehovah, Judges 5:4; Psalms 68:8 used of the gentle and slow gait of a delicate youth, Proverbs 7:8. Followed by an acc. to go through (a land), Habakkuk 3:12.
(2) to mount up (which is done with a slow motion, Arab. صَعِدَ to go up); poet. transit. to cause to go up (like the French monter for faire monter). Thus it appears to me we should explain the difficult passage Genesis 49:22, בָּנוֹת צָֽעֲדָה עֲלֵי שׁוּר “(the fruit-bearing tree) makes its daughters (i.e. branches) to ascend (it propels them) over the wall.” Commonly taken, “the daughters (i.e. branches) ascend over the wall; or, with the vowels a little changed, בְּנוֹת צַֽעֲדָה עֲלֵי שׁוּר “the daughters of ascent (i.e. the wild beasts dwelling in the mountains, Arab. صعدة بفات) (lie in) wait.” [This explanation is expressly rejected in Thes. p. 1176; the Arabic does not mean “wild beasts,” but “wild asses.”]
Hiphil, to cause some one to hasten his steps, to persecute. Job 18:14, תַּצְעִידֵהוּ לְמֶלֶךְ בַּלָּהוֹת “terrors persecute him like a (hostile) king.” [Better as in Thes. “make him go down to the king of terrors.”]
