Looking for Greek G3306 ménō? It has the same number in Strong's Greek lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of H3306. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.
yâphach appears once in Scripture, in Jeremiah 4:31. In the Doxa app, open that verse, keep your notes on it, and ask Doxa Engage how it connects to what God has said to you.
