Ὑέλη
From LSJ
Οὕτως γὰρ ἠγάπησεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸν κόσμον, ὥστε τὸν Υἱὸν τὸν μονογενῆ ἔδωκεν, ἵνα πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων εἰς Αὐτὸν μὴ ἀπόληται ἀλλ᾽ ἔχῃ ζωὴν αἰώνιον → For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life (John 3:16)

A v.l. Βελίαι), Ptol.Geog.3.1.8; Οὐέλια D.H.1.20, who says this form is an old dialect word (ϝέλια) for ἑλώδη = marshy places; but ἕλος prob. had no. ϝ. (The coins have υελητων, υελητεων, and ϝελη (των), B Mus.Cat.Coins Italypp.304,305, 306; the Oscan name Velia was prob. adapted as ελέη (hence ελῆ is more prob. than έλη) and Ἐλέα.)
