French (Bailly abrégé)
-ῶ :
être pieux, montrer des sentiments de piété (religieuse, filiale, etc.).
Étymologie: εὐσεβής.
English (Strong)
from εὐσεβής; to be pious, i.e. (towards God) to worship, or (towards parents) to respect (support): show piety, worship.
English (Thayer)
ἐυσεβω (εὐσεβής); "to be εὐσεβής (pious), to act piously or reverently" (toward God, one's country, magistrates, relations, and all to whom dutiful regard or reverence is due); in secular authors followed by εἰς, περί, πρός τινα; rarely also transitive, as Aeschylus Ag. 338 (τούς Θεούς) and in the Bible: τόν ἴδιον οἶκον, Θεόν, to worship God, Josephus, contra Apion 2,11, 1).
