    the forms of this word vary much; there was a strong form, skapa, skóp, but defective, for only the pret. (skóp, skópu) remains; the other tenses follow the weak form skapa, að (of the first weak conjugation), which is freq. in old writers, while it is the only form in mod. usage.
    2. there are also remains of another weak verb, skepja (answering to Goth. skapjan), to which belong the pret. skapði, part. skapið, skaptr; the infin. skepja, however, only occurs in a few instances, Kormak, D. I. i. 243. l. 31 (H. E. iv. 154), Bs. i. 734; as also the pres. part. skepjandi (in ein-skepjandi): [Ulf. skapjan = κτίζειν; A. S. and Hel. scapan; Engl. shape; O. H.

(St.); mörgum þeim hlutum er skapara-spekðin skapði, 677. 2; í upp-hafi skapaði Guð himin og jörð, Gen. i. 1, passim.
    3. to shape for one, assign as one’s fate or destiny, as denoting also what is natural or inborn; ek skapa honum þat, at hann skal eigi lifa lengr en kerti þat brennr, er upp er tendrat hjá sveininum, Fas. i. 341; s. e-m aldr, to shape one’s future life, of the weird-sisters; Nornir kómu þær er öðlingi aldr um skópu, Hkv. 1. 2; at eigi skapi Hallgerðr þér aldr (ironic.), Nj. 57; einu sinni var mér aldr skapaðr ok allt líf um lagit, Skm. 13; skapa e-m kaldan aldr, to ‘shape one a cold age,’ i. e. to make life sad, Korm.; var þér þat skapat, at…, Hkv. 2. 26; af þeim væri þat skapað, if that was fated to them, Grág. i. 368; syni þínum verðra sæla sköpuð, bliss is not fated to thy son, Skv. 2. 6; mun engi renna undan því sem honum er skapat, Grett. 159 new Ed.; mér var skapat at eiga hana, Bjarn.
