Greek-English Concordance for διι&κνέομαι

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and effective, sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through (diiknoumenos | διι&κνούμενος | pres mid ptcp nom sg masc) so as to divide soul from spirit, joints from marrow. It is even able to discern the thoughts and deliberations of the heart.
