nâshâh · Hebrew · Strong's H5383 · 13 occurrences
The KJV renders 4 different Hebrew and Greek words as “exact”
What it means
to lend or (by reciprocity) borrow on security or interest
a primitive root (rather identical with H5382 (נָשָׁה), in the sense of H5378 (נָשָׁא));
How the KJV renders it
creditor, exact, extortioner, lend, usurer, lend on usury
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
“creditor”
also renders daneistḗs (G1157)
Where it appears
13 occurrences in the Hebrew text, first 12 verses shown.
