גּוּד: vb. invade, attack [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/tanakh/1490/1464/#m2)

**The whole BDB entry:** vb. invade, attack (cf. גדד, whence יָגֻד etc. actually derived by Ki Bö Köi 356 q.v.; SS, perhaps better, denom. from גדוד)— Impf. יָגֻד Gn 49:19, יְגוּדֶ֑נּוּ v 19, יְגֻדֶ֑נּוּ Hb 3:16; יגודו ψ 94:21 Kt (v. גדד);—attack Gn 49:19, allit. c. גָּד n.pr. & גְּדוּד, גָּד גְּדוּד יְגוּדֶ֑נּוּ וְהוּא יָגֻד עָקֵֽב׃ Gad, a troop shall troop upon him, but he shall troop upon the heel (i.e. pursue them in their retreat) VB; Hb 3:16 לַעֲלוֹת לְעַם יְגֻדֶ֑נּוּ cf. VB & Comm.

Why these entries: BDB: headword, part of speech agrees, 2 of its verses cited, 1 words shared with the glosses, lists its Strong's number (11 candidates); OSHB: headword, part of speech agrees, 1 words shared with the BDB entry, 0 with the glosses (10 candidates)
