Νὺξ μὲν ἀναπαύει, ἡμέρα δ' ἔργον ποιεῖ → Nam nox quietem praebet, facit opus dies → Die Nacht lässt unsre Arbeit ruhn, der Tag sie tun

Menander, Monostichoi, 385

English (Strong)

a primitive root (rather identical with אָלָה through the idea of invocation); to bewail: lament.
a primitive root; properly, to adjure, i.e. (usually in a bad sense) imprecate: adjure, curse, swear.
