8 σέβομαι
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `to shy from smth., to feel ashamed', posthom. `to be in awe, to honour', esp. as regards the gods (Δ 242).Other forms: also σέβω (Pi., trag., rarely in prose; cf. Schw.-Debrunner 234), nonpres. forms quite rare: aor. pass. σεφθῆναι (S. Fr. 164, Pl. Phdr. 254b), fut. σεβήσομαι (pap. IIp).Derivatives: A. σέβας n. (only nom. a. acc.; pl. σέβη A. Supp. 755) `(sacred) awe, amazement, worship, object of awe, of worship' (ep. poet. Il.); after γέρας? (cf. Chantraine Form. 422; s. also on σεμνός); as 2. member, after the εσ-stems, - σεβής (Schwyzer 514; aslo relation to σέβομαι is possible), s.g. εὑ-σεβής `God-fearing, pious' (Thgn., Pi. etc.) with εὑσέβ-εια, - έω, - ημα; after this and after ἀσέβημα the simplex σέβημα n. `worship' (Orph.). From σέβας: 1. the aorist σεβάσσατο (Il.), to which σεβάζομαι, σεβασθῆναι (late) = σέβομαι. From this a. σεβάσεις pl. `deferences' (Epicur.); b. - σμα n. `object of worship, shrine' (D. H., NT etc.); c. - σμός m. `worship' (hell. a. late) with - σμιος, - σμιότης; d. - στός `venerable, reverend, elevated', = Lat. Augustus (D. H., Str. etc.; also to σέβας) with - στιος, - στικός, - στεύω, - στεῖον. 2. σεβίζομαι, - ίζω = σέβο-μαι (Pi., trag. a.o.; can also be enlargement of σέβομαι) with - ισμα n. (sch.). -- B. Verbal adj. σεπτός `venerable' (A. Pr. 812, late prose), mostly comp., ἄ-, περί-, θεό-σεπτος a.o. (trag. a.o.); σεπτ-ικός, - εύω H. C. nom. ag. θεο-σέπτωρ m. `worshiper of gods' (E. Hipp. 1364 [anap.]; Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 28). D. σέβερος εὑσεβής, δίκαιος H. -- On σεμνός and σοβέω s. v.Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1086] *ti̯egʷ- `have respcct for smb.'Etymology: Phonetically possible, but at least at first sight semant. not very convincing is the connection with Skt. tyajati `desert, leave alone, abandon' (Brugmann IF 25, 301 ff., WP. 1, 746, Pok. 1086). The causative σοβέω (s. v.) points for σέβομαι to an orig. meaning `run away, flee' v. t.; from this `(schameful) redress for sth., yield'? Doubts by Mayrhofer s.v. (w. lit.); agreement by v. Erffa Αἰδώς (Phil. Supp. 30: 2) 27 f. The equation of σεπτός with tyaktá-, of θεο-σέπτωρ with tyaktar-, to which also the s-stems σέβας: tyajas- (Porzig Satzinhalte 301), is without impostance for the etymology, as it could be monolingual innovations. Acc. to v. Windekens Orbis 14, 117 here also Toch. AB yäk- `negligent, careless, be c.'; doubtable.Page in Frisk: 2,686-687Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > σέβομαι
