Looking for Greek G5299 hypōpiázō? It has the same number in Strong's Greek lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of H5299. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.
nâphâh appears once in Scripture, in Isaiah 30:28. 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.
