[In classical Greek 3636 /oknērós ("indolent") refers to "shrinking backward, because unready. The idea of 'delay' underlies the secondary sense, 'burdensome, troublesome.' It is the vexation arising from weary waiting, and which appears in the middle English irken (to tire or to become tired), cognate with the Latin urgere (to press), and English irk (irksome, work)" (WS, 884).] Word Origin from okneó Definition shrinking, timid, hence idle, lazy, troublesome NASB Word Usage lagging behind (1), lazy (1), trouble (1).NAS Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible with Hebrew-Aramaic and Greek Dictionaries Copyright © 1981, 1998 by The Lockman Foundation All rights reserved Lockman.org lazy, slothful.
