fûr´vent ( דּלק , dālaḳ ; ἐκτενής , ektenḗs , ζέω , zéō ): "Fervent" (from Latin fervere , "to boil") does not occur in the King James Version of the Old Testament, but the Revised Version (British and American) gives it as the translation of dālaḳ , "to burn" ( Proverbs 26:23 ), instead of "burning," "fervent lips and a wicked heart." In the New Testament it is the translation of ektenēs , "stretched out," hence, intent, earnest ( 1 Peter 4:8 , "being fervent in your love among yourselves"); of zeō , "to boil," "to be hot" ( Romans 12:11 , "fervent in spirit," Acts 18:25 ); of zḗlos , "zeal," "fervor" ( 2 Corinthians 7:7 , the Revised Version (British and American) "zeal"), in James 5:16 the King James Version has: "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much," where the Greek is: polú ischúei déēsis dikaı́ou energouménē , which the Revised Version (British and American) renders, "The supplication of a righteous man availeth much in its working."
"Fervently" is the translation of agonı́zomai , "to strive or struggle" (agonize), Colossians 4:12 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "Epaphras ... striving for you in his prayers"; of ektenṓs , literally, in an outstretched manner ( 1 Peter 1:22 , the Revised Version (British and American) "Love one another from the heart fervently"; compare 1 Peter 4:8 , "fervent in your love among yourselves"). Christian love too often lacks this fervency , but Christ's love for us was "stretched out" to the uttermost.
The Revised Version (British and American) has "fervently" for "earnestly" ( James 5:17 , margin "with prayer").
