often desired that the נפשׁ may be delivered: from Sheʾôl Tehillim 16:10; Tehillim 30:4; Tehillim 49:16; Tehillim 86:13; Tehillim 89:49; Mishlei 23:14; from שַׁחַת, the pit of Sheʾôl, Yeshaya 38:17 Iyov 33:18, Iyov 33:22, Iyov 33:28, Iyov 33:30.
The נפשׁ becomes a living being: by God’s breathing נשׁמת חיים into the nostrils of its בשׂר; of man Breishis 2:7 (J); by implication of animals also Breishis 2:19 (J); so Tehillim 104:29, Tehillim 104:30 cf. Tehillim 66:9 man is נֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה, a living, breathing being Breishis 2:7 (J); elsewhere נפשׁ חיּה always of animals Breishis 1:20, Breishis 1:24, Breishis 1:30; Breishis 9:12, Breishis 9:15, Breishis 9:16 (all P), Yechezkel 47:9; so נפשׁ החיּה Breishis 1:21; Breishis 9:10 (both P), Vayikra 11:10, Vayikra 11:46 (H); נפשׁ השׁרצת Vayikra 11:46 (H); נפשׁ כל חי Iyov 12:10. נפשׁ is frequently used with the verb חיה: †וחיתה נפשׁ Breishis 12:13; Breishis 19:20 (both J), Melachim Alef 20:32 (E), Tehillim 119:175; Yirmiya 38:17, Yirmiya 38:20; †חֵי נַפְשְׁךָ Shmuel Alef 1:26; Shmuel Alef 17:55; Shmuel Alef 20:3; Shmuel Alef 25:26 Shmuel Beis 11:11; Shmuel Beis 14:19; Melachim Beis 2:2, Melachim Beis 2:4, Melachim Beis 2:6; Melachim Beis 4:30 (all JE); cf. †יְחַיֶּה נ׳ Melachim Alef 20:31 (E), Yechezkel 18:27 Tehillim 22:30; also Breishis 19:19 Yeshaya 55:3; Mishlei 3:22.
The נפשׁ (without חיה noun or verb) is specif.:
a living being whose life resides in the blood [so in Arabic WeSkizzen iii. 217 G. Jacob Arab. Dicht. iv. 9 f.] (hence sacrificial use of blood, and its prohib. in other uses; first in D), Devarim 12:23, Devarim 12:24 only be sure that thou eat not the blood, for the blood is the living being (הַדָּם הוּא הַנֶּפֶשׁ); and thou shalt not eat the living being with the flesh (הַנֶּפֶשׁ עִם הַבָּשָׂר); thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water; this enlarged in H, Vayikra 17:10, Vayikra 17:11, Vayikra 17:12, Vayikra 17:14 and in P Breishis 9:4, Breishis 9:5, cf. Yirmiya 2:34.
a serious attack upon the life is an attack upon this inner living being Shmuel Beis 1:9 Yirmiya 4:10; Yonah 2:6 Tehillim 69:2; Tehillim 124:4, Tehillim 124:5; Iyov 27:3.

נפשׁ = seat of the appetites, in all periods (46 times)—
hunger: נ׳ רְעֵבָה hungry soul Tehillim 107:9; Mishlei 27:7; with noun or verb of שׂבע satisfy Yeshaya 56:11; Yeshaya 58:10; Yirmiya 50:19; Yechezkel 7:19 Tehillim 63:6; Tehillim 107:9; Mishlei 13:25; Mishlei 27:7; מתוק לנ׳ Mishlei 16:24 sweet to the taste.

appetite in general: אֹיְבַי בנ׳ יַקִּיפוּ עָלָיו Tehillim 17:9 my enemies compass me about with greed; הִרְחִיבָה שְׁאוֹל נַפְשָׁהּ וּפָֽעֲרָה פִיהָ Yeshaya 5:14 Sheʾôl enlarged her appetite, etc., cf. Chavakuk 2:5; Mishlei 23:2 בַּעַל נֶפֶשׁ; Ec uses נפשׁ only in the sense of a, b, c; the נפשׁ craves, lacks, and is filled with good things: Koheles 2:24; Koheles 4:8; Koheles 6:2, Koheles 6:3, Koheles 6:7, Koheles 6:9; Koheles 7:28.

abhorrence, loathing: געלה נ׳ soul abhorreth Vayikra 26:11, Vayikra 26:15, Vayikra 26:30, Vayikra 26:43 (H) Yirmiya 14:19; וגם נ׳ בחלה בי Zecharia 11:8 and their soul also fell a loathing against me.
sorrow and distress: †מרי נ׳ bitter, gloomy, discontented of soul Shoftim 18:25 (E) Shmuel Beis 17:8; Iyov 3:20; Mishlei 31:6; †מר נ׳ Shmuel Alef 22:2 cf. Iyov 7:11; Iyov 10:1; Yeshaya 38:15; Yechezkel 27:31; עָֽגְמָה נ׳ Iyov 30:25 grieved; אגמי נ׳ sad of soul Yeshaya 19:10; תבכה נ׳ my soul shall weep Yirmiya 13:17; נ׳ ירעה his soul trembleth Yeshaya 15:4; צרת נ׳ distress of soul Breishis 42:21 (E).

love: אהבה נ׳ my soul loveth Shir HaShirim 1:7; Shir HaShirim 3:1, Shir HaShirim 3:2, Shir HaShirim 3:3, Shir HaShirim 3:4; יְדִדוּת נ׳ darling of my soul Yirmiya 12:7; דבקה נ׳ ב׳ his soul clave unto Breishis 34:3 (J), c. אחרי Tehillim 63:9; חשׁקה נ׳ ב׳ soul is attached to Breishis 34:8 (P).
alienation, hatred, revenge: †תֵּקַע נ׳ מן the soul is alienated from Yirmiya 6:8; Yechezkel 23:17, Yechezkel 23:18; נקעה נ׳ מן Yechezkel 23:18, Yechezkel 23:22, Yechezkel 23:28; שְׂנֻאי נ׳ hated of soul Shmuel Beis 5:8 (Qr); שׂנאה נ׳ Tehillim 11:5 Yeshaya 1:14.
other emotions and feelings: השׁיב נ׳ bring back soul Eicha 1:11, Eicha 1:19 (i.e. revive, cf. c. שׁוּב Melachim Alef 17:21), hence fig. refresh, cheer, v Melachim Alef 17:16 Tehillim 19:8 Mishlei 25:13; Rus 4:15; שׁובב נ׳ Tehillim 23:3; מַחְמַל נ׳ your souls’ compassion Yechezkel 24:21; קצרה נ׳ soul was impatient Bamidbar 21:4 (E), Shoftim 10:16; Shoftim 16:16; Zecharia 11:8; כי אאריך נ׳ that I should prolong my patience Iyov 6:11; ידעתם את־נ׳ הגר ye know the feeling of the stranger Shemos 23:9 (RD).
נפשׁ is used occasionally for mental acts + לבב (see 10); poss. also alone, owing to unconscious assimilation by late writers; but most, if not all, exx. may be otherwise explained: נפשׁי ידעת מאד Tehillim 139:14 my soul knoweth well (or I know well; cf. 4 a); בלא דעת נ׳ לא טוב Mishlei 19:2 that the soul be without knowledge is not good (but RVm desire without knowledge, cf. 6 a); דעה חכמה לנ׳ Mishlei 24:14 know wisdom for thy soul (or according to thy desire, cf. 6 a); אל תדמי בנ׳ Esther 4:13 think not in thy soul (or in thyself, cf. 4 b); כמו שׁער בג׳ Mishlei 23:7 as he reckoneth in his soul (but RV in himself, cf. 4 b); מה תאמר נ׳ Shmuel Alef 20:4 (but AV RV foll. 𝔊 ἐπιθυμεῖ = תְּאַוֶּה; v. 6 a).
נפשׁ for acts of the will is dub.: אם ישׁ נפשׁכם (את) if it is your purpose Breishis 23:8 (P) Melachim Beis 9:15 (or if it is your desire, 6 a); בחרה נ׳ my soul chooseth Iyov 7:15; מאנה נ׳ my soul refuseth Iyov 6:7 Tehillim 77:3; נ׳ חפצה their soul delighteth in Yeshaya 66:3; נ׳ רצתה my soul delighteth in Yeshaya 42:1; (all perhaps emotional, 6 b, d, g).
נפשׁ = character is still more dub.: לֹא־יָֽשְׁרָה נ׳ בּוֹ Chavakuk 2:4 his soul is not right in him (but 𝔊 οὐκ εὐδοκεῖ ἡ ψυχή μου ἐν αὐτῷ [εὐδοκεῖ = רצתה], v. 6); נַפְשִׁי לֹא מְטֻמָּאָה Yechezkel 4:14 my soul hath not (or I have not, 4 a) been polluted.
נ׳ in D, when used with לבב, is assim. to it, and shares with it the meanings of 7, 8, 9; and so in later writers influenced by D (unless we may think that ל׳ is used of intellect, while נ׳ is used of the feelings): thus, בכל לבב ובכל נפשׁ (see לבב): c. דרשׁ Devarim 4:29; Divrei HaYamim Beis 15:12; עשׂה Devarim 26:16; אהב Devarim 6:5; Devarim 13:4; Devarim 30:6; ידע Yehoshua 23:14; עבד Devarim 10:12; Devarim 11:13; Yehoshua 22:5; שׁמע בקלו Devarim 30:2; שׁוב אל Devarim 30:10 Melachim Alef 8:48 = Divrei HaYamim Beis 6:38, Melachim Beis 23:25; שׁמר מצות Melachim Beis 23:3 = Divrei HaYamim Beis 34:31; הלך לפני Melachim Alef 2:4; and Devarim 11:18; Shmuel Alef 2:35 Divrei HaYamim Alef 22:19; Divrei HaYamim Alef 28:9 Yirmiya 32:41 Tehillim 13:3 Mishlei 2:10; Mishlei 24:12.
—In three cases is generally found closer approach to supposed radical meaning breath:
שׁמן וקטרת ישׂמח לב ומתק רעהו מעצת נפשׁ Mishlei 27:9. Ges (after Döderlein) renders מעצת נ׳ more than odorous trees, so later edds., even Buhl; but 𝔙 De SS transp. וּמֶתֶק נ׳ מֵעֲצַת רֵעֵהוּ. 𝔊 Hi Bi ומתקרעה = the soul is rent asunder by cares. In any case נפשׁ is ‖ לב, cf. 10.
נַפְשׁוֹ גֶּחָלִים תְּלַהֵט Iyov 41:13 his breath kindleth coals (of the crocodile). The piece is one of the latest in the book; primitive meaning hardly in such a passage; context favours ref. to passion or fury; perhaps sub 6 f, his passion or fury kindleth coals.
בָּתֵּי הַנֶּפֶשׁ Yeshaya 3:20 perfume boxes; meaning evident from context; but not necessarily scent (breath)-boxes; may be 6 a, boxes of desire, or 5, boxes exciting the sense of smell; = smelling boxes or bottles. No sufficient evid. in BH, therefore, for meaning breath, odour.—See, for complete study of נֶפֶשׁ (all passages), BrJBL 1897, 17 ff.
