STRONGS G15:
ἀγαθοποιέω, -ῶ; 1 aorist infinitive ἀγαθοποιῆσαι; (from ἀγαθοποιός);
1. to do good, do something which profits others: Mark 3:4 [Tdf. ἀγαθόν ποιῆσαι; Luke 6:9]; to show oneself beneficent, Acts 14:17 Rec.; τινα, to do some one a favor, to benefit, Luke 6:33, 35, (equivalent to הַיטִיב, Zephaniah 1:12; Numbers 10:32; Tobit 12:13, etc.).
