ἀν-ίημι
(ἀνά, ἵημι), [in LXX for רָפָה, נָשָׂא, etc. ;]

1. to send up, produce, to send back.

2. to let go, leave without support: Heb.13:5 (cf. Deu.31:6; Hom., Iliad., ii, 71).

3. to relax, loosen (see Field, Notes, 124 f.): Act.16:26 27:40; hence, metaphorically, to give up, desist from: Eph.6:9.†
