καλοποιέω kalopoiéō · G2569 · to do good
The target term εὐποιΐα and καλοποιέω (“to do well, i.e. live virtuously”) occupy adjacent positions within the broader field of beneficial or virtuous action — the target naming the good deed as a result, καλοποιέω naming the ongoing practice of doing good — genuine convergence on virtuous, beneficial action.
εὐεργεσία euergesía · G2108 · good deed
