gnashing
Brugmos is the gnashing named alongside weeping in scenes of exclusion, darkness, or fiery punishment.
The attested use names gnashing in a repeated expression joined with weeping, occurring where people are cast outside, into outer darkness, or into a furnace of fire; Luke 13:28 similarly places it with exclusion from the kingdom scene.

Gnashing amid weeping and exclusion · dominant
The nominative singular masculine form occurs in the repeated clause pairing it with weeping. In Matthew 13:42 and Matthew 13:50 the APB renders the clause "there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth" after people are thrown into a furnace of fire; in Matthew 8:12, Matthew 22:13, and Matthew 25:30 the same pairing follows being thrown into outer darkness. Luke 13:28 places the expression where those addressed are being expelled outside while seeing the patriarchs and prophets in the kingdom of God.
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the supplied verses, the APB consistently presents the expression as "weeping and gnashing of teeth," with articles included in Matthew 22:13, Matthew 25:30, and Matthew 8:12. This repeated English wording indicates the clause's presentation rather than isolating a separate English equivalent for the lemma.
