To afflict, oppress, humble — and, in the intensive innah, to FORCE, degrade, violate. Prophesied of Israel in Egypt (15:13), dealt by Sarai to an Egyptian (16:6), accepted in the angel's hard 'submit yourself' (16:9), heard by God in Hagar's 'affliction' (16:11) — the Exodus verb, running backward. Its darkest Genesis use is 34:2, of Shechem and Dinah — 'he took her and lay with her and innah her,' the law's own word for rape (Deuteronomy 22:29; what Amnon does to Tamar, 2 Samuel 13:14). The KJV/ASV soften it to 'humbled'; this translation renders it 'violated.' → first discussed at Gen 15:13
