أَنْهَضُ مِنَ الْفِرَاشِI get up from bed

From a fully vowelled text

إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَكَ مَا تَفِي، فَلِمَاذَا يَأْخُذُ فِرَاشَكَ مِنْ تَحْتِكَ؟If thou hast nothing to pay, why should he take away thy bed from under thee?Proverbs 22:27, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
لأَنَّ الْفِرَاشَ قَدْ قَصَرَ عَنِ التَّمَدُّدِ، وَالْغِطَاءَ ضَاقَ عَنِ الالْتِحَافِ.For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.Isaiah 28:20, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
فَجَاءَ الرُّسُلُ وَإِذَا فِي الْفِرَاشِ التَّرَافِيمُ وَلِبْدَةُ الْمِعْزَى تَحْتَ رَأْسِهِ.And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats' hair for his bolster.1 Samuel 19:16, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
