G1203 — δεσπότης

δεσπότου, ὁ (from Pindar down), a master, lord (as of δοῦλοι, οἰκέται): 1Ti 6:1,(2); 2Ti 2:21; Tit 2:9; 1Pe 2:18; God is thus addressed by one who calls himself his δοῦλος: Luk 2:29, cf. Act 4:24, Act 4:29 (δεσπότης τῶν πάντων, Job 5:8; Wis. 6:8); Christ is so called, as one who has bought his servants, 2Pe 2:1; rules over his church, Jude 1:4 (some take δεσπότης here as designating God; cf. R. V. marginal reading); and whose prerogative it is to take vengeance on those who persecute his followers, Rev 6:10.
