κρίνω

krínō · Greek · Strong's G2919 · 114 occurrences

The KJV renders 19 different Hebrew and Greek words as “think”

What it means

by implication, to try, condemn, punish

properly, to distinguish, i.e. decide (mentally or judicially);

How the KJV renders it

avenge, conclude, condemn, damn, decree, determine, esteem, judge, go to law, ordain, call in question, sentence to, think

Where that flattens a distinction

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