G1907–ἐπέχω–epechō

And he spake a simile unto those called, marking how they were choosing out the first couches, saying unto them,

ἐπέχων epechōn “remarking”

and he was giving heed to them, looking to receive something from them;

ἐπεῖχεν epeichen “he was giving heed”

and having sent to Macedonia two of those ministering to him -- Timotheus and Erastus -- he himself stayed a time in Asia.

ἐπέσχεν epeschen “remained”

the word of life holding forth, for rejoicing to me in regard to a day of Christ, that not in vain did I run, nor in vain did I labour;

ἐπέχοντες, epechontes “holding forth,”

take heed to thyself, and to the teaching; remain in them, for this thing doing, both thyself thou shalt save, and those hearing thee.

ἔπεχε epeche “do give heed”
