    DefinitionShort: to prevail over something or some person so as to be able to defeat, with the implication that the successful participant has greater strength
    Glosses: ['to defeat', 'to prevail over']
    Comments: In some languages it may be impossible to personify ‘death’ and thus make it an agent of ‘defeating.’ However, it is possible to retain some of the figurative meaning involved, at least in some languages, by translating ‘and my church will never die out’ or ‘and my church will never die.’
