It is used to denote the act of repaying or compensating someone for a loss or injury, aligning with the broader biblical theme of justice and restoration.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, the concept of recompense was integral to maintaining social justice and harmony. The Law of Moses included detailed instructions on restitution for various offenses, emphasizing the importance of restoring what was lost or damaged. This reflects the broader biblical principle that God is a God of justice, who desires His people to live in right relationship with one another.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7999.htm">shalem</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>requital<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>bribe (1), recompense (1), retribution (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">שִׁלּוּם</font> <a href="/interlinear/micah/7-3.htm">Micah 7:3</a>, <font class="hebrew2">שִׁלֻּם</font> <a href="/interlinear/hosea/9-7.htm">Hosea 9:7</a>, <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>requital</b></font>;
