STRONGS G433:
ἀνήκω; [imperfect ἀνῆκεν]; in Greek writings to have come up to, arrived at, to reach to, pertain to, followed generally by εἴς τι; hence, in later writings ἀνήκει τί τινι something appertains to one, is due to him namely, to be rendered or performed by others (1 Macc. 10:42; 1 Macc. 11:35; 2 Macc. 14:8), and then ethically τὸ ἀνῆκον what is due, duty [R. V. befitting], Philemon 1:8; τὰ οὐκ ἀνήκοντα unbecoming, discreditable, Ephesians 5:4 (L T Tr WH ἃ οὐκ ἀνῆκεν, Winers Grammar, 486 (452); [Buttmann, 850 (301)]); impersonally, ὡς ἀνῆκε as was fitting, namely, ever since ye were converted to Christ, Colossians 3:18 [Winers Grammar, 270 (254); cf. Buttmann, 217 (187) and Bp. Lightfoot at the passage].
