Thayer's Expanded Definition

δειλία, δειλίας, ἡ (δειλός), timidity, fearfullness, cowardice: 2 Timothy 1:7. (Sophocles (Herodotus), Euripides, (Aristophanes), Thucydides, and subsequent writings.) [SYNONYMS: δειλία, φόβος, εὐλάβεια: "of these three words the first is used always in a bad sense; the second is a middle term, capable of a good interpretation, capable of an evil, and lying pretty evenly between the two; the third is quite predominantly used in a good sense, though it too has not altogether escaped being employed in an evil." Trench, § x, which see; cf. δέος.]

Abbott-Smith Manual Greek Lexicon of the New Testament

δειλία , -ας , ἡ

(< δειλός ),

[in LXX for H367, H4288, etc.;]

SYN.: φόβος G5401, fear, in general, good or bad; εὐλάβεια G2124 (q.v.), apprehension generally, but chiefly pious fear, "that careful and watchful reverence which pays regard to every circumstance in that with which it has to deal" (cf. Tr., Syn., § x). †
