The KJV renders 43 different Hebrew and Greek words as “make”

What it means

to place down (permanently), i.e. (figuratively) to designate, constitute, convoy

from G2596 (κατά) and G2476 (ἵστημι);

How the KJV renders it

appoint, conduct, make, ordain, set

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
