Greek-English Concordance for στεναγμός

Acts 7:34 Surely I have seen the oppression of my people in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning (stenagmou | στεναγμοῦ | gen sg masc), and I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you back to Egypt.’
Romans 8:26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings (stenagmois | στεναγμοῖς | dat pl masc) too deep for words.
