STRONGS G5278:
ὑπομένω; imperfect ὑπέμενον; future 2 person plural ὑπομενεῖτε; 1 aorist ὑπέμεινα; perfect participle ὑπομεμενηκως; from Homer down; the Sept. for קִוָּה, חִכָּה, יִחֵל;

a. to persevere: absolutely and emphatically, under misfortunes and trials to hold fast to one's faith in Christ (R. V. commonly endure), Matthew 10:22; Matthew 24:13; Mark 13:13; 2 Timothy 2:12 (cf. 2 Timothy 2:10 in b.); James 5:11; with τῇ θλίψει added, when trial assails (A. V. in tribulation (i. e. the dative of circumstances or condition)) (cf. Kühner, § 426, 3 (Jelf, § 603, 1)), Romans 12:12 (quite different is ὑπομένειν τῷ κυρίῳ, לַיְהוָה הוחִיל, Lamentations 3:21, 24; Micah 7:7; 2 Kings 6:33; לַי הִכָּה, Psalm 32:20 (Ps. 33:20), to cleave faithfully to (A.
