The Lxx translates it with the Greek verb sozo, which means to rescue one from peril, danger or suffering, to protect from loss or destruction, to heal, to make whole, to keep alive, to preserve life (physical but especially spiritual - compare Ps 6:4, Ps 86:2).
Orzo is an Italian dried pasta. Each piece of the pasta is the size and shape of an unprocessed grain of barley, which is what orzo means in Italian, barley. [1]. The pasta is an off-white colour. Traditionally, orzo is used in soups or in chilled salads, or as a bed for roasted meats.
