flee
to flee, escape, run away; in causative forms, to put to flight, cause to flee, drive away. Used both of physical running away from danger or threat and, at times, metaphorically (e.g., fleeing from anger, judgment, or terror). In the Hiphil stem, the root can denote causing others to flee (to rout, expel, banish, or deliver from pursuit). Less commonly, it can describe vanishing, departing, subsiding (especially of fear or wrath).
