2. (n.) Cause of trouble or vexation; trouble.

3. (v. t.) To do harm to.

mis'-chif: The word, in the sense of "hurt" or "evil" befalling, plotted against, or done to, anyone, represents a variety of Hebrew terms (e.g. 'acon, the King James VersionGenesis 42:4;Genesis 44:29Exodus 21:22; ra`,1 Samuel 23:92 Samuel 16:8;1 Kings 11:25, etc.; `amal,Psalm 7:14, 16;Psalm 10:7, 14Proverbs 24:2, etc.). Sometimes the Revised Version (British and American) changes the word, as to "evil" (Exodus 32:12, 22); inActs 13:10, to "villany" (rhadiourgia).

In the Revised Version (British and American) Apocrypha the word is used for kaka, "evils," Additions to Esther 13:5 (compare Sirach 19:28); kakia, "evil," 1 Maccabees 7:23; and Latin malum, "evil," 2 Esdras 15:56. "Mischievous" is used, Additions to Esther 14:19, for ponereuomai, "to be evil." The use in the King James Version Apocrypha is considerably more extended (Sirach 11:33; 19:27; 27:27, etc.).
