τί δὲ βλέπεις τὸ κάρφος τὸ ἐν τῷ ὀφθαλμῷ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ σου, τὴν δὲ ἐν τῷ σῷ ὀφθαλμῷ δοκὸν οὐ κατανοεῖς → why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye | and why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye | why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but don't consider the beam that is in your own eye

German (Pape)

[Seite 911] ἡ, der Smirgel, ein hartes Eisenerz od. ein Korund, Diamantspath, der als Sand auf dem Rade der Steinschleifer u. Steinschneider zum Abschleifen u. Poliren gebraucht wird; Diosc.; bei Hesych. σμίρις.

Greek (Liddell-Scott)

σμύρις: -ιδος. ἡ, κόνις πέτρας σκληρᾶς σιδηροχάλκου ἧς ἐποιοῦντο χρῆσιν οἱ λιθοξόοι καὶ τῶν πολυτίμων λίθων ἐργάται, Διοσκ. 5. 165· σμιρὶς παρ’ Ἡσυχ., ὃ ἴδε· - ὡσαύτως σμῠρίτης λίθος ὁ, Ἑβδ. (Ἰὼβ ΜΑ΄, 7).

Greek Monolingual

-ιδος, η, ΝΜΑ
βλ. σμύριδα.

Frisk Etymological English

(σμίρις), -ιδος, -εως
Grammatical information: f.
Meaning: emery-powder for abrading and polishing (Dsc., late medic.).
Derivatives: σμιρίτης λίθος m. (LXX; Redard 61), σμιριεῖα n. pl. (wr. ζμιρριεια) emery-powder (Imbros IIa).
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Unexplained. Since long (Fick 1, 575; 2, 317; WP. 2, 690, Pok. 970f., W.-Hofmann s. medulla w. lit.) with μύρον (s. v.) connected wih a Germ.-Celt. word for grease, fatt in OHG. smero, OIr. smi(u)r etc.; not very convincing as to the factual matter. Also the frequent notation with ι remains hard to understand (vowelharmony?). Acc. to v. Blumenthal Hesychst. 45 to σμάω, σμῆν; semantically to be preferrred; σμύρις then after μύρον? Furnée 366 takes the variation υ: ι as proof of Pre-Greek origin.

Frisk Etymology German

σμύρις: (σμίρις), -ιδος, -εως
{smúris}
Grammar: f.
Meaning: Schmirgel zum Abreiben und Polieren (Dsk., sp. Mediz.)
Derivative: mit σμιρίτης λίθος m. (LXX; Redard 61), σμιριεῖα n. pl. (geschr. ζμιρριεια) Schmirgel (Imbros IIa).
Etymology: Nicht sicher erklärt. Seit langem (Fick 1, 575; 2, 317; WP. 2, 690, Pok. 970f., W.-Hofmann s. medulla m. Lit.) mit μύρον (s. d.) zu einem. germ.-kelt. Wort für Schmer, Fett in ahd. smero, air. smi(u)r usw. gezogen; sachlich nicht ganz befriedigend. Dabei bleibt auch die geläufige Schreibung mit ι schwerverständlich (Vokalharmonie?). Nach v. Blumenthal Hesychst. 45 zu σμάω, σμῆν; begrifflich gewiß vorzuziehen; σμύρις dann nach μύρον?
