τιμή
timḗ · Greek · Strong's G5092 · 41 occurrences
The KJV renders 12 different Hebrew and Greek words as “honour”
What it means
a value, i.e. money paid, or (concretely and collectively) valuables; by analogy, esteem (especially of the highest degree), or the dignity itself
from G5099 (τίνω);
How the KJV renders it
honour, precious, price, some
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
“honour”
“precious”
