Senses in use

  1. Preposition marking accompaniment or presence · dominant

    The supplied forms are tagged simply as Preposition. In 1 Chronicles 13:1 the APB renders David conferring “with every leader”; in 1 Chronicles 17:8 it renders God’s presence with David wherever he went; and in 1 Chronicles 22:15 it places workers “with you.” The same relation can join things or groups, as 1 Chronicles 18:11 renders items consecrated “with the silver and the gold.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB often makes the relation explicit with “with,” including shared action, association, and presence; elsewhere the prepositional relation may be absorbed into the translation’s larger clause. Its wording does not establish a separate lexical rendering for each occurrence.
