Hashkem
Remember during class today when Rabbi Sadiya came in and kind of asked for the translation of hashKem? Hashkem literally means thet you should get up early to strike first. This could mean that the torah wants you to initiate, or you should be alert when he strikes you so you can kill him before he kills you.

then how come u didn't say it to rabbi sadia
Very good point Mikah, and the gemara in pesachim learns from this פסוק (and רש"י on the פסוקbrings it) that one should do a mitzvah Promptly and with Alacrity and enthusiasm.
mika telling us that u know that word is sorta saying that your smarter then reb sadya
