2. with a restrictive force, emphasizing what follows:
  a. in contrast to what precedes, howbeit;
  b. in contrast with other ideas generally, only
1. asseverative, often introducing with emphasis the expression of a truth (or supposed truth) newly perceived, especially in colloquial language, surely, no doubt (doch wohl); Gen 26:9 אַךְ הִנֵּה אִשְׁתְּךָ הִוא of a surety, lo, she is thy wife ! Gen 29:14; Gen 44:28; Judg 3:24; Judg 20:39; 1Sam 16:6 surely the anointed of ׳י is before him ! 1Sam 25:21; Jer 5:4; Ps 58:12; Ps 73:1; Ps 73:13 but also in other cases, though rarely, Isa 34:14; Isa 34:15; Zeph 3:7; Ps 23:6; Ps 139:11; Ps 140:14; Job 16:7; Job 18:21 & rather singularly Exod 12:15; Exod 31:13; Lev 23:27; Lev 23:39 (all P).

Gen 27:13; Judg 10:15; 1Sam 18:17; 1Kgs 17:13 and elsewhere So 1Sam 8:9 אַךְ כִּי (see כִּי; and compare πλὴν ὅτι).

Note. — In some passages the affirmative and restrictive senses agree equally with the context; and authorities read the Hebrew differently. Thus only = nought but, altogether, is adopted by Ges Ew Hi De in Ps 23:6; Ps 62:10; Ps 73:1; Ps 73:13 by Ew Hi De in Ps 39:6; Ps 39:7 (Che surely); by Ges Ew De in Ps 39:12 (but Hi Che surely); by Ew Hi in Ps 73:18 (De Che surely); by Ges Hi De in Ps 139:11 (Ew doch). Isa 45:14 Ges Ew Hi Di only; but De Che of a truth.

a particle of affirmation, surely; hence (by limitation) only
