sut denotes prompting or persuading someone toward a proposed course of action, whether beneficial, contested, or harmful.

The verb consistently describes one party moving another toward a particular course: David is prompted to count Israel, Jehoshaphat to go to Ramoth-gilead, and a woman urges a request for a field. The supplied verses also place this prompting in accusations, warnings, and situations where the proposed action is destructive or disputed.

   The Hiphil forms depict an agent directing another toward a specified action: in 1 Chronicles 21:1 the APB renders Satan prompting David to count Israel, and in 2 Chronicles 18:2 it renders Ahab prompting him to go up to Ramoth-gilead. In Joshua 15:18 and Judges 1:14, the same verbal setting concerns urging a man to ask Caleb for a field; Jeremiah 43:3 frames Baruch as allegedly prompting a course that would result in death or exile.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the verses, the APB commonly presents the clause with “incited,” while also using “urged,” “mislead,” “entice,” and “draws... out” in differing contexts. These are whole-verse presentations of the clauses rather than a fixed English equivalent.
