Near synonyms 2 words
διαμένω diaménō · G1265 · to remain, to continue, to remain in
διαμένω shares the core sense of continuing or persisting through time with διατελέω. Both emphasize duration and continuation, though διαμένω focuses more on remaining in place or state while διατελέω can emphasize the completion aspect of persistence.
μένω ménō · G3306 · to remain, to stay, to await
μένω is the basic Greek verb for remaining or continuing in a state or location, semantically overlapping with διατελέω's sense of persisting, though μένω is broader and less intensive than the compound διατελέω.

Thayer's Greek-English Lexicon διατέλω; to bring thoroughly to an end, accomplish, (cf. διά, C. 2); with the addition of…
διατέλω; to bring thoroughly to an end, accomplish, (cf. διά, C. 2); with the addition of τόν βίον, τόν χρόνον, etc., it is joined to participles or adjectives and denotes the continuousness of the act or state expressed by the prcp. or adjective (as in Herodotus 6, 117; 7, 111; Plato, Apology, p. 31 a.); oftener, however, without the accusative it is joined with the same force simply to the participles or adjectives: thus, ἄσιτοι διατελεῖτε, ye continue fasting, constantly fast, Acts 27:33 (so ἀσφαλεστερος (others, ἀσφαλεστατος) διατελει, Thucydides 1, 34; often in Xenophon; Winers Grammar, 348 (326); (Buttmann, 304 (261))).
