Strong's References
- G1063 — γάρ (gár, gar): a primary particle; properly, assigning a reason (used in argument, explanation or intensification; often with other particles); and, as, because (that), but, even, for, indeed, no doubt, seeing, then, therefore, verily, what, why, yet
- G1325 — δίδωμι (dídōmi, did'-o-mee): a prolonged form of a primary verb (which is used as an alternative in most of the tenses); to give (used in a very wide application, properly, or by implication, literally or figuratively; greatly modified by the connection); adventure, bestow, bring forth, commit, deliver (up), give, grant, hinder, make, minister, number, offer, have power, put, receive, set, shew, smite (+ with the hand), strike (+ with the palm of the hand), suffer, take, utter, yield

- G3464 — μύρον (mýron, moo'-ron): probably of foreign origin (compare H4753, σμύρνα (smýrna) G4666); "myrrh", i.e. (by implication) perfumed oil; ointment
- G4097 — πιπράσκω (pipráskō, pip-ras'-ko): contracted from περάω (peráō) (to traverse; from the base of πέραν (péran) G4008); to traffic (by travelling), i.e. dispose of as merchandise or into slavery (literally or figuratively); sell
