Greek-English Concordance for τιμωρέω

Acts 22:5 as also the high priest and the whole council of elders can bear me witness. From them I received letters to the brothers, and I went toward Damascus to take those also who were there and bring them in bonds to Jerusalem to be punished (timōrēthōsin | τιμωρηθῶσιν | aor pass subj 3 pl).
Acts 26:11 And I punished (timōrōn | τιμωρῶν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) them often in all the synagogues and tried to make them blaspheme; and since I was so vehemently angry at them, I pursued them even to foreign cities.
