נָכָה nâkâh · H5221 · to hit, to beat, to strike
Hebrew נָכָה encompasses a broader semantic range of striking/smiting actions (including lethal force: kill, slay, slaughter) while Greek τύπτω specifically denotes repeated striking with a stick or cudgel (pummel, beat), typically non-lethal; the two overlap in their core 'strike/beat' sense where τύπτω serves as the Greek rendering of נָכָה's non-lethal striking contexts.
