H657. ephes
אֶ֫פֶס אָ֑פֶס noun masculine properly ceasing, hence
1 end, extremity, only in the poetic phrase אֶרֶץ אַפְסֵי ([Psa 59:14] ׳א הארץ) ends, extreme limits, of the earth, used especially hyperbolically: [Deut 33:17]; [1Sam 2:10]; [Micah 5:3]; [Jer 16:19]; [Psa 2:8]; [59:14]; [72:8] (= [Zech 9:10]); + כָּלֿ [Isa 45:22]; [52:10]b (= [Psa 98:3]b) [22:28]; Psalm 67:8; [Prov 30:4].
2 Expressing non-existence:
a. as substantive. (mostly a rare poetic synonym of אַיִן): [Isa 34:12] and all his princes אָ֑פֶס יִהְיוּ shall become nought, ([41:29], [12] וּכְאֶפֶס כְאַיִן יִהְיוּ; [40:17] וָתֹהוּ מֵאֶפֶס (|| כְּאַיִן) as made of nought and worthlessness are they accounted by him, [41:24] (readמֵאָ֑פֶס מָּעָלְכָם, || מֵאַיִן see אֶפַע); [52:4] and Asshur oppressed him בְּאֶפֶס for nought.
b. as particle of negation, prop. cessation of. . ! (compare ֗֗֗ אֵין nought of...), very rare in prose ([2Sam 9:3]), chiefly a poetic synonym of ׃אֵין [Isa 5:8] מָקוֺם אֶפֶס עַד till there is an end of place = till there is no place (compare אֵין עַָד [Psa 40:13]), [Amos 6:10] (compare אָֽיִן [Judg 4:20]), [Deut 32:36] (hence, in prose, [2Kin 14:26]), [Isa 45:6] (compare אָין [43:11]) [43:14]; [46:9]; [54:15]; עוֺד וְאַפְסִי אֲנִי [Zeph 2:15]; [Isa 47:8], [10] is probably to be rendered, 'I am, and there is none besides (so Ges Ew Di etc.), the י being 'paragogic' as in זוּלָתי etc. (Ges§ 90, 3 a Ew§ 211 b), compare עוֺד וְאֵין [45:5-6], [18], [21]; but according to De the י is suffix of 1 singular 'I am, and I am nought besides' (i.e. and I am nought besides my all-sufficient self). — בְּאֶפֶס (like בְּאֵין, q. v.) without: [Prov 14:28]; [26:20]; [Job 7:6]; [Dan 8:25].
c. as adverb of limitation: (a) only: [Num 22:35] (compare אַח [22:20]) [23:13]. (b) כִּי אֶפֶס save that, howbeit (qualifying a preceding statement): [13:28]; [Deut 1:5]; [Judg 4:9]; [Amos 9:8] (+ [1Sam 1:5] ᵐ5 We Sta Dr). So אֶפֶס alone [2Sam 12:14] (the following כִּי signifying because).

dual אָפְסָ֑ים not ׳א; see Baer), literally the two extremities, i.e. either the soles of the feet (so AW Ges; compare Aramaic מִּיסְּתָא, , or the ankles (so ᵑ9 ᵑ7 ᵑ6, & most): only [Ezek 47:2] א ׳מֵי water of (i.e. reaching to) the soles (or ankles); compare [47:4] מָתְנָ֑יִם מֵי water reaching to the loins.
