ots.mah denotes strength given to the weary, relied on for support, or associated with potent spells.

The attested uses present strength as power given to a weary person and as support attributed to Cush and Egypt; a further construct use occurs in a clause about many sorceries and potent spells.

1. Strength supplied or relied upon · dominant

   In Isaiah 40:29 the absolute singular noun stands in the clause where strength is given to the weary and power is increased for one without might. In Nahum 3:9 the construct singular noun occurs where the APB renders Cush as her "strength," alongside Egypt and help.

2. Potency in a sorcery context · rare

   In Isaiah 47:9 the construct singular form occurs in the stated reason involving many sorceries; the APB renders the surrounding clause with "your powerful spells." The verse is read as a whole, so the term's precise English contribution within that phrase remains uncertain.

   Isaiah 47:9

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the relevant clauses with "strength" in Isaiah 40:29 and Nahum 3:9, and with "powerful spells" in Isaiah 47:9. These renderings identify the verses' contexts rather than fixed English equivalents.
