لاَ يَغْمُرَنِّي سَيْلُ الْمِيَاهِ، وَلاَ يَبْتَلِعَنِّي الْعُمْقُ، وَلاَ تُطْبِقِ الْهَاوِيَةُ عَلَيَّ فَاهَا.Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.Psalms 69:15, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
«كَلِّمَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقُولاَ لَهُمْ: كُلُّ رَجُلٍ يَكُونُ لَهُ سَيْلٌ مِنْ لَحْمِهِ، فَسَيْلُهُ نَجِسٌ.Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man hath a running issue out of his flesh, because of his issue he is unclean.Leviticus 15:2, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
«أَوْصِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنْ يَنْفُوا مِنَ الْمَحَلَّةِ كُلَّ أَبْرَصَ، وَكُلَّ ذِي سَيْلٍ، وَكُلَّ مُتَنَجِّسٍ لِمَيْتٍ.Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is defiled by the dead:Numbers 5:2, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
