From one derivation it has the meaning "to stand" and so "to continue in one place" (Genesis 8:10 Leviticus 13:23, 28, etc.), "to forbear to act" (Ruth 1:13), "to rest," "to be trustful" (King James Version, the English Revised Version Isaiah 10:20; see below). Transitively it means "to cause to stay," "to hinder" (Daniel 4:35, etc.), and "stay" as a noun means "cessation of progress" (Leviticus 13:5, 37), "sojourn." From the second derivation the verb means "to support" (Exodus 17:12 1 Kings 22:35 Songs 2:5), while the noun means "a support" (1 Kings 10:19 Isaiah 3:1, etc.). the American Standard Revised Version has judged obsolete "stay on" in the sense "trust in," and for "stay" has substituted "lean" in Isaiah 10:20 and "rely" in 30:12; 31:01:00; 50:10, although "stay themselves upon" (= "support themselves by") has been kept in 48:2. Otherwise the Revised Version (British and American) has made few alterations. But such as have been made ("tarry ye" for "stay yourselves" in Isaiah 29:9 and the American Standard Revised Version "restrain" for "stay" in Job 37:4) could have been carried farther with advantage.
