It is often used in the context of God leading His people, whether through the wilderness, in paths of righteousness, or in times of trouble. The term conveys a sense of direction and purpose, emphasizing the guidance provided by a leader, often with a connotation of care and protection.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, the concept of guidance was deeply rooted in the nomadic lifestyle, where leaders, such as shepherds, played a crucial role in directing their flocks to safe pastures and water sources. This imagery is frequently used in the Bible to describe God's relationship with His people, portraying Him as the ultimate Shepherd who leads His flock with wisdom and compassion.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to wail, lament<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>lamented (1), utter (1), wail (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">נָהָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>wail, lament</b></font> (probably onomatopoetic, compare Sta<sup>Geschichte. i. 388</sup>;
