عَصِرَ , (assumed tropical:) He took, or collected, the produce

(assumed tropical:) And in it they shall take, or collect, the produce
of the earth: (S:) or the meaning is, and in it

have rain]. (S, O.) [See also above, and below.] =

عَصِرَ , inf. n. عَصْرٌ,
He gave (O, K, TA) to him. (K, TA.) Thus

لَوْ كَانَ فِى أَمْلَاكِنَا أَحَدٌ
يَعْصِرُ فِينَا كَٱلَّذِى تَعْصِرُ
(S, O, TA, but in the S with مَلِكٌ in the place of
أَحَدٌ,) i. e. [If there were, or would that there
were, among our kings one] giving to us the like
of what thou givest: (TA:) and another reading
is, مِثْلَ مَا تَعْصِرُ; (O;) and it is expl. (by A'Obeyd,
TA) as meaning, doing to us benefits (O, TA)
like as thou dost: (O:) but Aboo-Sa'eed relates
it thus;
يُعْصَرُ فِينَا كٱلَّذِى تُعْصَرُ
i. e. يُصَابُ مِنْهُ [app. from عَصَرَ signifying “ he
pressed ” grapes and the like; and thus meaning,
(assumed tropical:) from whom is gotten, among us, like what is
gotten from thee; or, as it may be less freely
rendered, who has his bounty drawn forth, among
us, like as thou hast thine drawn forth]; and he
disallowed the reading [يَعْصِرُ and] تَعْصِرُ. (TA.)
