    ἐγ-κακέω, 
ῶ [(see below); 1 aor. 
ἐνεκάκησα]; (
κακός); [prop. to behave badly in; hence] 
to be weary in anything, or 
to lose courage, flag, faint: adopted by L T Tr WH in place of R G 
ἐκκακέω (which see) in 
Luke 18:1; 
2 Corinthians 4:1, 
16; 
Galatians 6:9; 
Ephesians 3:13; 
2 Thessalonians 3:13 — except that T WH write 
ἐνκ. in 
Luke 18:1; 
Galatians 6:9; 
Ephesians 3:13; so WH in 
2 Thessalonians 3:13, also see 
ἐν, III. 3; [cf. Tdf.’s note on 
2 Corinthians 4:1; Meyer ibid., who thinks that 
ἐκκ. may have been a colloquial form. See the full exhibition of the usage of the manuscripts given by Dr. 
Gregory in his Proleg. to Tdf. ed. 8, p. 78.] (Found a few times in Symmachus [
Genesis 27:46; 
Numbers 21:5;

οὐκ ἐκκακούμενος ἐκνάμϕθην].)
