1: ὀλολύζω

(Strong's #3649 — Verb — ololuzo — ol-ol-ood'-zo )

an onomatopoeic verb (expressing its significance in its sound), "to cry aloud" (the Sept. uses it to translate the Heb. yalal, e.g., Isaiah 13:6; 15:3; Jeremiah 4:8; Ezekiel 21:12; Lat., ululare, and Eng., howl are akin), was primarily used of crying aloud to the gods; it is found in James 5:1 in an exhortation to the godless rich.
