Narrow (#2585) comes from the verb chanak (#2596) which means to train up, dedicate.

“Train [chanok] up a child in the way he should go…” Proverbs 22:6.

“Solomon offered for the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered to the MASTER, 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep. So the king and all the sons of Israel trained [chanak] the house of the MASTER.”
