In the Torah

The Torah holds 221,937 sequences of ניק at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 221,459).

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 9:9, reading forward.

Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 3,302,312 sequences of ניק, against about 3,432,512 from chance alone.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 221,459 of it, so a large count is expected.
