תְּשׁוּעָה
tᵉshûwʻâh · Hebrew · Strong's H8668 · 34 occurrences
The KJV renders 14 different Hebrew and Greek words as “help”
What it means
rescue (literal or figurative, persons, national or spiritual)
or תְּשֻׁעָה; from H7768 (שָׁוַע) in the sense of H3467 (יָשַׁע);
How the KJV renders it
deliverance, help, safety, salvation, victory
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
“help”
also renders boḗtheia (G996), antílēpsis (G484), syllambánō (G4815), epikouría (G1947), antilambánomai (G482), synantilambánomai (G4878), symbállō (G4820), boēthéō (G997), châzaq (H2388), yâshaʻ (H3467), ʻâzab (H5800), ʻâzar (H5826), ʻêzer (H5828)
