Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent that corresponds to the concept of a cry for help is found in Strong's Greek Number G1162, δέησις (deēsis), which means a supplication or prayer, often used in the New Testament to denote a request or plea directed towards God. This Greek term captures the essence of earnest entreaty and is similarly used in contexts where individuals seek divine intervention or assistance.

Usage: The term שׁוּעַ (shua') is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a loud cry or shout, typically in a context where someone is calling out for help or expressing a strong need for assistance.

Context: The Hebrew word שׁוּעַ (shua') appears in the context of expressing a loud cry or shout, often associated with a plea for help or deliverance. This term is rooted in the broader Hebrew tradition of vocal expressions of need or distress, which are frequently directed towards God or others who can provide aid. The use of שׁוּעַ (shua') underscores the urgency and intensity of the situation, highlighting the human experience of vulnerability and dependence on divine or communal intervention. In the Hebrew Bible, such cries are often met with a response, illustrating the reciprocal nature of communication between the supplicant and the responder, whether divine or human.
