Thayer, as opposed to Trench and others, would make the distinction
between these two words to be this: `` signifies to ask for
something to be given, not done, giving prominence to the thing asked
for rather than the person, and hence is rarely used in exhortation.
, on the other hand, is to request a person to do (rarely to
give) something; referring more directly to the person, it is naturally
used in exhortation, etc.''
