Strong’s Greek Lexicon

strengthened from G4154; to wheeze, i.e. (cause. by implication) to throttle or strangle (drown):—choke, take by the throat.

Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.

Thayer’s Greek Definitions

1) to choke, strangle
1a) of thorns crowding out the seed in the field and hindering its growth
2) to wring one’s neck, throttle
