Similar to the Latin etymology of "permanent", meaning "remaining or lasting to the end"

2 John 1:9	Everyone who goes on ahead and does (menōn \| μένων \| pres act ptcp nom sg masc) not continue (menōn \| μένων \| pres act ptcp nom sg masc) in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever continues (menōn \| μένων \| pres act ptcp nom sg masc) in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
Revelation 17:10	five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; and when he does come, he must remain (meinai \| μεῖναι \| aor act inf ) for only a brief time.
