{Yet} (ge). Delicate intensive particle of deep feeling as
here. {Because this widow troubleth me} (dia to parechein moi
kopon t(886e) ch(8872)an taut(886e)). Literally, because of the furnishing
me trouble as to this widow (accusative of general reference with
the articular infinitive). {Lest she wear me out} (hina m(880a)hup(9370)iaz(8869) me). Some take it that the judge is actually afraid
that the widow may come and assault him, literally beat him under
the eye. That idea would be best expressed here by the aorist
tense.
