Brown-Driver-Briggs Expanded Definition
 I. בָּלַל verb mingle, mix, confuse, confound (Arabic moisten (with water), compare moisture, Assyrian balâlu, Dl Proverbs 70; compare Phoenician בלל name of a sacrifice, & Late Hebrew בִּלְבֵּל; Aramaic בַּלְבֵּל, ) —

Qal Perfect בָּלַל Genesis 11:9, ַ™בּלֹּתִָּֽי Psalm 92:11 (but compare below); Imperfect 1 plural נָָֽבְלָה = נָכֹ֫לָּה Genesis 11:7, compare Kö i. 325; Participle passive בָּלוּל Exodus 29:40 3t., בְּלוּלָה Leviticus 2:5 28t., בְּלוּלֹת Exodus 29:2 4t.; —

1 mingle, confuse (object שָׂפָה = speech, language, q. v.) Genesis 11:7,9 (J).

2 mix (cakes or flour, etc. always with oil) technical term of sacrifice, only P (H Leviticus 23:13), compare Di on Leviticus 2:4; usually as מנחה, ׳בַּשֶּׁמֶן׳סֹלֶת בּ Exodus 29:40; Leviticus 2:5; Leviticus 14:10,21; Leviticus 23:13; Numbers 7:13,19,25,31,37,43,49,55,61,67,73,79; Numbers 8:8; Numbers 15:4,6,9; Numbers 28:5,9,12 (twice in verse); Numbers 28:13; Numbers 28:20; Numbers 28:28; Numbers 29:3; Numbers 23:9; Numbers 23:14, ׳בשׁ׳מנחה ב Leviticus 7:10 (opposed to חֲרֵבָה) Leviticus 9:4, ׳בשׁ׳חַלּוֺת מַצּוֺת ב Exodus 29:2; Leviticus 7:12 (twice in verse), i.e. made by mixing with oil; סלת׳בשׁ ׳חלות מצות ב Leviticus 2:4, ׳בשׁ׳סלת חלות ב Numbers 6:15, i.e. fine flour (in the form) of cakes so made. ַ™בּלֹּתִָּֽי בְּשֶׁמֶן רַעֲנָן Psalm 92:11 I shall be ( am) anointed with fresh oil AV RV; verb not elsewhere in this sense; ᵐ5ᵑ9 Hup Che read בְּלֹתִי from בלה, infinitive construct suffix, abstract for concrete, my wasting = my wasting strength, of declining age; Israel under figure of old man; this however is not favoured by context. The passage is therefore doubtful.

Hithpo`el Imperfect יִתְבּוֺלָ֑ל Hosea 7:8; ׳אפרים בעמים הוא י Ephraim, among the peoples doth he mix himself; but Ew Now derive here from בלל = בלה (or נבל) waste away, compare Hiph`il

Hiph`il Imperfect וַנָּ֫בֶל Isaiah 64:5 and we faded away, but read perhaps וַנִּכֹּל from נבל compare Di ( Deuteronomy , less probably, derives from בלל — compare Ew Now Hosea 7:8 — or בול = נבל).

II. [בָּלַל] verb denominative to give provender

Qal Imperfect וַיָּ֑בָל Judges 19:21 Qr (Kt ויבול) followed by לְ give provender to the asses.

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

בָּלַל

(1)  to pour over (Arab. بَلَّ to wet, to moisten, יָבַל to flow as water, פּוּל, פַּלְפֵּל ܦܰܠܦܶܠ, to sprinkle). Part. pass. בָּלוּל בַּשֶׁמֶן “poured over with oil of oblations,” Leviticus 2:4, 7:10, 12 14:21 Numbers 7:13, 19. Intrans. to be poured over, anointed. Psalms 92:11, בַּלּוֹתִי בְּשֶׁמֶן רַעֲנָן “I am anointed with fresh oil.” In the derivatives, see שַׁבְלוּל and תְּבַלּוּל.

(2) to pour together (Gr. συγχέω), to confound, especially speech; Genesis 11:7, הָבָה נֵרְדָה וְנָֽבְלָה שָׁם שְׂפָתָם “come we will go down, and there confound their lip,” i.e. their speech, which is farther explained “so that one could not understand another;” נָֽבְלָה for נָבֹלָּה, see Lehrg. page 372, and verse Genesis 11:9. Comp. בְּלִיל. Arab. بلبل to be confounded, of speech, تبلبل الالسن confusion of languages, Conj. II. to babble.

(3) to stain, to soil (comp. פַּלְפֵּל, ܦܰܠܦܶܠ mentioned under Kal). So in the derivatives תֶּבֶל, תְּבַלּוּל. (Comp. בְּלַם to mix, and to stain.)

(4) denom. from בְּלִיל to give meslin or provender to beasts; Judges 19:21, וַיָּבָל לַתֲמֹרִים; Vulg. et pabulum asinis prœbuit.

Note. The form וַנָּבֵל Isaiah 64:5, is for וַנַּבֶּל which see; also Index analyt.

Hithpolel, to mix oneself, followed by בְּ Hosea 7:8.

Derived nouns are בְּלִיל, תֶּבֶל, תְּבַלּוּל, שַׁבְלּוּל and the pr.n. בָּבֶל.
