Genesis 19:19

הִנֵּה נָא מָצָא עַבְדְּךָ חֵן בְּ עֵינֶיךָ וַ תַּגְדֵּל חַסְדְּךָ אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתָ עִמָּדִי לְ הַחֲיֹות אֶת נַפְשִׁי וְ אָנֹכִי לֹא אוּכַל לְ הִמָּלֵט הָ הָרָה פֶּן תִּדְבָּקַנִי הָ רָעָה וָ מַתִּי
Behold, now, your slave has found a favored-one in your eyes, and you are causing to grow up your kind-one678 which you have made by-me,679 to cause to live my breath, and myself I am not able to escape the Mountain-ward, lest the Ruined-one is cleaving-to me,680 and I have died.
679

Strong’s #5978, immadi. According to Gesenius, “only found with the suffix of the first-person by me. This word is not at all connected to with the root amad [#5975] to stand, but it rather belongs to an unused root to tie, bind together.”
