 [שׁוּף] verb bruise (Late Hebrew id., Aramaic שׁוּף, שְׁפַף, rub off, away, grind ( Exodus 32:20 ᵑ7ᵑ9 for טָחַן); see especially Dr Gn; > Di and others think "" form of I. שׁאף); —

Qal Imperfect 3 masculine singular + 2 masculine singular הוּא יְשׁוּפְךָראֹשׁ וְּאַתָּה תְּשׁוּפֶנּוּ עָקֵב Genesis 3:15; אֲשֶׁרבִּֿשְׂעָרָה יְשׁוּפֵנִי Job 9:17; אַךְ השֶׁךְ יְשׁוּפֵנִי Psalm 139:11 meaning unsuitable, read perhaps with Ew and others יְשׂוּבֵּנִי cover, screen, me.

שׁוֺפַךְ see שׁוֺבַךְ. שׁוּפָמִי see שְׁפוּפָם below שׁפף.

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

שׁוּף

(1) pr. (as was first seen by Umbreit on Job 9:17), i.q. שָׁאַף to gape upon [see note], hence to lie in wait for any thing, Genesis 3:15, הוּא יְשׁוּפְךָ רֹאשׁ וְאַתָּה תְּשׁוּפֶנּוּ עָקֵב “he (the seed of the woman, man) shall lie in wait for thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for his heel,” he shall endeavour to crush thy head, and thou shalt endeavour to crush his heel. Hence

(2) to attack, to fall upon any one, Job 9:17, “who falls upon me in a tempest.” Metaph. Psalms 139:11, השֶׁךְ יְשׁוּפֵנִי “darkness shall fall upon me,” shall overwhelm me.

[Note. The above explanation of Genesis 3:15, is purely neologian; the passage applies not to man generally, but to Christ the seed of the woman; bruise is the simple meaning in each part of the verse.]
