Strong’s Definitions [?](Strong’s Definitions Legend)
ἀναπαύω anapaúō, an-ap-ow'-o; from G303 and G3973; (reflexively) to repose (literally or figuratively (be exempt), remain); by implication, to refresh:—take ease, refresh, (give, take) rest.
STRONGS G373:
ἀναπαύω: future ἀναπαύσω; 1 aorist ἀνέπαυσα; perfect passive ἀναπέπαυμαι; middle [present ἀναπαύομαι]; future ἀναπαύσομαι (Revelation 6:11 [Lachmann edition min., Tdf. editions 2, 7, WH; but G L T Tr with R -σωνται]), and in the colloquial speech of inferior Greek ἀναπαήσομαι (Revelation 14:13 L T Tr WH, cf. Buttmann (57) especially English translation, p. 64f; Kühner, 1:886; [Tdf. Proleg., p. 123; WHs Appendix, p. 170]; see also in ἐπαναπαύω); 1 aorist ἀνεπαυσάμην; (a common verb from Homer down): to cause or permit one to cease from any movement or labor in order to recover and collect his strength (note the prefix ἀνά and distinguish from καταπαύω [see ἀνάπαυσις, at the end]), to give rest, refresh; middle to give oneself rest, take rest. So in the middle voice, absolutely of rest after traveling, Mark 6:31; and for taking sleep, Matthew 26:45; Mark 14:41; of the sweet repose one enjoys after toil, Luke 12:19; to keep quiet, of calm and patient expectation, Revelation 6:11: of the blessed rest of the dead, Revelation 14:13 (ἐκ τῶν κόπων exempt from toils [cf. Buttmann, 158 (138)]; Plato, Critias in. ἐκ μακρᾶς ὁδοῦ). By a Hebraism (עַל נוּחַ, Isaiah 11:2) τὸ πνεῦμα ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς ἀναπαύεται rests upon you, to actuate you, 1 Peter 4:14. Active: to refresh, the soul of anyone: τινά, Matthew 11:28; τὸ πνεῦμά τινος, 1 Corinthians 16:18; τὰ σπλάγχνα τινός, Philemon 1:20. In passive, Philemon 1:7; 2 Corinthians 7:13 (ἀπὸ πάντων ὑμῶν from your sight, attentions, intercourse).
[Compare: ἐπ-, συν- (-μαι).]
