=====qes===== קש 'qes' means "pain". This word is often used to describe the pain of childbirth. In an interesting example of a [[cognate]] phrase, rather than a cognate word, the English phrase "pain in the neck" appears to have originated from the phrase 'qes [[yerep]]' which literally means "pain neck".((see Exodus 32:9, 33:3, 33:5, 34:9, Deuteronomy 9:6, 9:13))
