okneros describes laziness opposed to diligence and, in one occurrence, what is not troublesome to write.

The dominant attested use characterizes a person as lazy, whether a slave addressed by his master or people contrasted with diligence; a rarer neuter use describes repeated writing as not troublesome.

1. Lazy conduct contrasted with diligence · dominant

   In Matthew 25:26, the vocative singular masculine form addresses a slave in his master's rebuke; the APB renders the address "Wicked and lazy slave." In Romans 12:11, the nominative plural masculine form occurs in the instruction that contrasts it with diligence; the APB renders the clause "In diligence not lazy."

   Matthew 25:26Romans 12:11
2. Not troublesome to repeat in writing · occasional

   In Philippians 3:1, the nominative singular neuter form occurs in the statement about writing the same things again; the APB renders this as "To write the same things to you is not troublesome for me."

   Philippians 3:1

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB uses "lazy" in Matthew 25:26 and Romans 12:11, while Philippians 3:1 has "not troublesome" for the statement about repeated writing. This variation is treated as confirmation of each verse's clause rather than a precise lexical mapping.
