Thayer's Greek Lexicon
νῖκος, νικους, τό, a later form equivalent to νίκη (cf. Lob. ad Phryn., p. 647; (Buttmann, 23 (20); Winers Grammar, 24)), victory: 1Co 15:55; 1Co 15:57 (2Ma 10:38; (1Es 3:9)); εἰς νῖκος, until he have gained the victory, Mat 12:20; κατεπόθη ὁ θάνατος εἰς νῖκος, (A. V. death is swallowed up in victory) i. e. utterly vanquished, 1Co 15:54. (The Sept. sometimes translate the Hebrew ìÈðÆöÇç, i. e. to everlasting, forever, by εἰς νῖκος, 2Sa 2:26; Job 36:7; Lam 5:20; Amo 1:11; Amo 8:7, because πΖφΗη denotes also splendor, 1Ch 29:11, and in Syriac victory.)
