CONSUME

kon-sum' (akhal, kalah, tamam; analisko): In Old Testament 'akhal ("to eat," "devour") occurs very frequently, and is translated "consumed" (Genesis 31:40 Exodus 15:7 Psalm 78:63, etc.); kalah ("to finish") is also frequently translated "consume," "consumed" (Genesis 41:30 Exodus 32:10 Psalm 59:13, etc.); tamam, "to be perfect," "finished" (Numbers 17:13 Deuteronomy 2:15 Psalm 73:19, etc.). There are many other words translated "consume" and "consumed," e.g. cuph, "to end" (Jeremiah 8:13 Zechariah 1:2, 3); balah, "to fade," "wear away" (Job 13:28 Psalm 49:14); gazal, implying violence (Job 24:19); caphah, "to end" (Genesis 19:15, 17 Isaiah 7:20, etc.); ashesh, "to be old" (Psalm 6:7; Psalm 31:9, 10 the King James Version); maqaq, "to become completed" (Ezekiel 4:17 Zechariah 14:12 bis); `asah kalah is rendered "utterly consume" (Nehemiah 9:31); analisko, "to use up," occurs in Luke 9:54 Galatians 5:15 2 Thessalonians 2:8 (the King James Version); dapanao, "to spend," is translated "consume" in James 4:3 (the Revised Version (British and American) "spend"); katanalisko, "to consume utterly," occurs only in Hebrews 12:29; "for our God is a consuming fire."

In the Revised Version (British and American) "devour," "devoured" are several times substituted for "consume," "consumed," e.g. Job 20:26 Jeremiah 49:27 Numbers 16:35; "boil well" (Ezekiel 24:10); for "be consumed with dying" (Numbers 17:13), "perish all of us"; "consume" is substituted for "corrupt" in Matthew 6:19; "my spirit is consumed," for "my breath is corrupt" (Job 17:1); instead of "the flame consumeth the chaff" (Isaiah 5:24) we have "as the dry grass sinketh down in the flame"; and for "whom the Lord shall consume" (2 Thessalonians 2:8), the Revised Version (British and American) reads (after a different text) "whom the Lord Jesus shall slay," "consume" in the American Revised Version, margin.
