וְ הַ מַּיִם גָּבְרוּ מְאֹד מְאֹד עַל הָ אָרֶץ וַ יְכֻסּוּ כָּל הֶ הָרִים הַ גְּבֹהִים אֲשֶׁר תַּחַת כָּל הַ שָּׁמָיִם

And the Dual-Waters have prevailed290 exceedingly exceedingly291 on the Earth, and are covering the whole of the High Mountains292 which are underneath the whole of the dual-heavens;


290

Strong’s #1396, gabar. To be mighty. This word is used extensively in the context of battles or war.

Upon these ones myself is she-who-weeps, my eye my eye is she-who-descends dual-waters. For he has been distanced from myself he-who-consoles, he-who-turns-back my breath; my builders HAVE BECOME those-who-are-stunned for he-who-is-hostile [enemy] has prevailed [gabar].” Lamentations 1:16 literal

YAHWEH is as the Warrior; as a man of wars he is going out. He is awakening a jealous-one; he is causing a blast-sound, indeed, he is causing a shrill-cry, upon his enemies he is prevailing-himself [gabar].” Isaiah 42:13.
