קָלוֹן qâlôwn · H7036 · disgrace, shame, insult
Greek ἀτιμία and Hebrew קָלוֹן both denote dishonor, shame, and disgrace as social/moral concepts; the Hebrew term emphasizes confusion and ignominy while the Greek highlights comparative indignity and subjective disgrace, but both terms function as direct translation equivalents across the LXX witness for the semantic domain of public dishonor.
כְּלִמָּה kᵉlimmâh · H3639 · shame, dishonour, disgrace
Hebrew כְּלִמָּה (kᵉlimmâh, H3639) denotes shame/dishonor as a state of public disgrace or humiliation, directly parallel to Greek ἀτιμία (atimía, G819) which denotes dishonor/disgrace as loss of honor or dignity; both terms express the same core concept of public shame or disrepute across their respective corpora.
