Elauno describes movement impelled by an outside force and, for boats, movement made by rowing.

The attested uses chiefly describe persons or things being moved by an outside force—mists by a storm, ships by winds, and a man toward deserted places—while the active forms describe making progress in a boat by rowing.

1. Movement impelled by an outside force · dominant

   The passive forms portray subjects under an external force: in 2 Peter 2:17 the APB renders mists as "driven by a storm," in James 3:4 ships as "driven by strong winds," and in Luke 8:29 a man as "driven by the demon toward the deserted places."

2. Making way in a boat by rowing · common

   The active forms occur in boat-travel scenes. In John 6:19 the APB renders the action "after they had rowed," and in Mark 6:48 it describes the disciples "struggling as they rowed" against the wind.

   John 6:19Mark 6:48

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the passive occurrences with "driven" and the active boat-travel occurrences with "rowed" or "rowing." These renderings confirm the clauses' movement imagery rather than fixing a separate English equivalent in every verse.
