prophecy, that prophesy, prophet.
Looking for Greek G5030 tachéōs? It has the same number in Strong's Greek lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of H5030. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.
When nâbîyʼ is spoken over you, Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against Scripture with people you trust, and return to it in a year.

When nâbîyʼ is spoken over you
Words like this one get spoken over people: in a prayer line, in a message from a friend, in a moment nobody planned. The lexicon gives you what nâbîyʼ means. What God is saying to you through it is yours to record and weigh.
Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against verses like 1 Kings 18:40 with people you trust, and return to it in a year to see what came of it.
