Dear Paul,
Here is how PARAKLHTOS is used in the LXX:

It isn't!
But you do find SUNKLHTOS and EPIKLHTOS a few times.

The verb it comes from, PARAKALEW, is used 138 times. It is used 24
times in Isaiah, and sometimes the places it occurs have no parallel in the
Hebrew text.

A famous passage is Isa 40:1
PARAKALEITE, PARAKALEITE TON LAON MOU LEGEI hO QEOS

Hope this helps!
