giveth
Grants, King James-style
Giveth is an archaic or biblical form of the verb give, used with third-person singular subjects in Early Modern English.
It appears frequently in the King James Bible and similar texts: The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.
Today it surfaces mainly in quotations, deliberate archaism, or humorous imitation of old-fashioned speech.
