- G18 — ἀγαθός (agathós, ag-ath-os'): a primary word; "good" (in any sense, often as noun); benefit, good(-s, things), well. Compare καλός (kalós) G2570.
- G26 — ἀγάπη (agápē, ag-ah'-pay): from ἀγαπάω (agapáō) G25; love, i.e. affection or benevolence; specially (plural) a love-feast; (feast of) charity(-ably), dear, love
- G505 — ἀνυπόκριτος (anypókritos, an-oo-pok'-ree-tos): from Α (A) G1 (as a negative particle) and a presumed derivative of ὑποκρίνομαι (hypokrínomai) G5271; undissembled, i.e. sincere; without dissimulation (hypocrisy), unfeigned
- G655 — ἀποστυγέω (apostygéō, ap-os-toog-eh'-o): from ἀπό (apó) G575 and the base of στυγνητός (stygnētós) G4767; to detest utterly; abhor
- G2853 — κολλάω (kolláō, kol-lah'-o): from κόλλα (kólla) ("glue"); to glue, i.e. (passively or reflexively) to stick (figuratively); cleave, join (self), keep company
- G4190 — πονηρός (ponērós, pon-ay-ros'): from a derivative of πόνος (pónos) G4192; hurtful, i.e. evil (properly, in effect or influence, and thus differing from κακός (kakós) G2556, which refers rather to essential character, as well as from σαπρός (saprós) G4550, which indicates degeneracy from original virtue); figuratively, calamitous; also (passively) ill, i.e. diseased; but especially (morally) culpable, i.e. derelict, vicious, facinorous; neuter (singular) mischief, malice, or (plural) guilt; masculine (singular) the devil, or (plural) sinners; bad, evil, grievous, harm, lewd, malicious, wicked(-ness). See also πονηρότερος (ponēróteros) G4191.
