FORGO

for-go' (from for, negative, and go): Occurs in Ecclesiastes 7:19, as translation of astocheo, which means "to miss the mark," "turn or swerve from." "Forgo not a wise and good wife (the King James Version "woman"); for her grace is above gold," meaning "Turn not away from her"; in Ecclesiastes 8:9, the word is rendered "miss not"; compare 1 Timothy 1:6; 6:21; 2 Timothy 2:18.
