Seize ( Word Origin and History from Old French seisir )

Ezra 4:1 When the enemies of Judah and Benjamin heard that the exiles were building a temple for the LORD, the God of Israel, 

2 they came to Zerubbabel and to the heads of the families and said, “Let us help you build because, like you, we seek your God and have been sacrificing to him since the time of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, who brought us here.” 

3 But Zerubbabel, Joshua and the rest of the heads of the families of Israel answered, “You have no part with us in building a temple to our God. We alone will build it for the LORD, the God of Israel, as King Cyrus, the king of Persia, commanded us.” 

4 Then the peoples around them set out to discourage the people of Judah and make them afraid to go on building. 

5They bribed officials to work against them and frustrate their plans during the entire reign of Cyrus king of Persia and down to the reign of Darius king of Persia. Proverbs 2:1

 My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you,

2 turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding—

3 indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, 

4 and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, 

5 then you will understand the fear of the LORDand find the knowledge of God. 

6For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. 

7 He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, 

8 for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones. 

9 Then you will understand what is right and just and fair—every good path. 

10 For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul. 

11 Discretion will protect you, and understanding will guard you. Proverbs 20:5

 The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out. 

6 Many claim to have unfailing love, but a faithful person who can find? Psalm 77: 10

 Then I thought, “To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.
