Genesis 4:12

For when you are serving אֶת-the Red-one, you are not adding175 to give her strong-one to-yourself. One-who-moves-to-and-fro176 and one-who-waves177 you are becoming in the Earth.`

Footnote:

177

Strong’s #5110, nud. Particple masculine singular. To nod, waver, move to and fro, wagging, nodding. The concrete is to nod (the head) as in shaking the head. Hence the “flitting” of the sparrows wings (Prov. 26:2) and the mourning. This and the previous word describe two waving motions of different types.
