G1465–ἐγκόπτω–egkoptō

and that I may not be further tedious to thee, I pray thee to hear us concisely in thy gentleness;

ἐγκόπτω, egkoptō “I may be a hindrance,”

Wherefore, also, I was hindered many times from coming unto you,

ἐνεκοπτόμην enekoptomēn “I was being hindered”

Ye were running well; who did hinder you -- not to obey the truth?

ἐνέκοψεν enekopsen “impeded”

wherefore we wished to come unto you, (I indeed Paul,) both once and again, and the Adversary did hinder us;

ἐνέκοψεν enekopsen “hindered”

The husbands, in like manner, dwelling with `them', according to knowledge, as to a weaker vessel -- to the wife -- imparting honour, as also being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.

ἐγκόπτεσθαι egkoptesthai “[cause to] be impeded”
