The correct answer is (D) To steal (money or other property entrusted to one's care); to divert (money, etc.) fraudulently for one's own purposes.

Embezzle comes from Middle English embesilen, Anglo-French embeseillier (to make away with, destroy) from em (put into) + Old French besillier (ravage)

Examples of use:

• The bank officer embezzled funds for several years.
• Without adequate controls, someone could embezzle money.
