Nictitate
To nictitate is to wink.
In no Biblical narrative is a character said to have nictitated. All four biblical references to nictitation occur in the Wisdom Literaure (Psalms 35:19; Proverbs 6:13, 10:10, 16:30).
He who winks his eyes does so to devise perverse things;
He who compresses his lips brings evil to pass. (Proverbs 16:30, NASB)
