Exegesis
Within the quotation, the interjection hí-le-ōs {Ἵλεώς | hí-le-ōs} with the dative soi {σοι | soi} forms the Greek jussive protest ‘far be it’, rendered as “Far be it from You” and “May this never happen to You.”
In context — Matthew 16:22
And Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “Far be it from You, Lord ; this shall never happen to You.”
