This word is found in its antiquated sense in the Burial Service, but in no other part of the Prayer book. It occurs in a passage quoted from Job 14:1-2, concluding with and never continueth in one stay. The word stay may be changed for place or condition without affecting the sense.<\/p>\n
sta: Is derived from two distinct forms. From one derivation it has the meaning to stand and so to continue in one place (Gen 8:10; Lev 13:23, Lev 13:28, etc.), to forbear to act (Rth 1:13), to rest, to be trustful (King James Version, the English Revised Version Isa 10:20; see below). Transitively it means to cause to stay, to hinder (Dan 4:35, etc.), and stay as a noun means cessation of progress’ (Lev 13:5, Lev 13:37), sojourn. From the second derivation the verb means to support (Exo 17:12; 1Ki 22:35; Son 2:5), while the noun means a support (1Ki 10:19; Isa 3:1, etc.). the American Standard Revised Version has judged obsolete stay on in the sense trust in, and for stay has substituted lean in Isa 10:20 and rely in Isa 30:12; Isa 31:1; Isa 50:10, although stay themselves upon (= support themselves by) has been kept in Isa 48:2. Otherwise the Revised Version (British and American) has made few alterations. But such as have been made (tarry ye for stay yourselves in Isa 29:9 and the American Standard Revised Version restrain for stay in Job 37:4) could have been carried farther with advantage.<\/p>\n
