While there is no direct one-to-one correspondence, the following Hebrew entries capture similar ideas: Usage: The term ἀνιλεής is used in the New Testament to describe a lack of mercy or compassion. It is often associated with a harsh or unforgiving attitude. Context: The Greek word ἀνιλεής appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize the absence of mercy or compassion. It is a term that highlights the severity of judgment or the harshness of an attitude that lacks forgiveness. In the Berean Standard Bible, ἀνιλεής is used in Romans 1:31, where the Apostle Paul describes the characteristics of those who have turned away from God. The passage lists various sinful behaviors and attitudes, including being "unmerciful," as evidence of a depraved mind. This usage underscores the moral decline that results from rejecting divine truth and the natural law written on human hearts.
