Thayer's Expanded Definition

αὐτάρκεια, αὐταρκείας, (αὐτάρκης, which see), a perfect condition of life, in which no aid or support is needed; equivalent to τελειότης κτήσεως ἀγαθῶν, Plato, def., p. 412 b.; often in Aristotle, (defined by him (pol. 7, 5 at the beginning, p. 1326{b}, 29) as follows: τό πάντα ὑπάρχειν καί δεῖσθαι μηθενός ἀυταρκες; cf. Lightfoot on Philippians 4:11); hence, a sufficiency of the necessaries of life: 2 Corinthians 9:8; subjectively, a mind contented with its lot, contentment: 1 Timothy 6:6; ((Diogenes Laërtius 10, 130).

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

αὐτάρκεια occurs in P Oxy IV. 729.10 (A.D. 137) τὴν δὲ αὐτάρκιαν κόπρον περιστερῶν , ";guano, the necessary amount,"; P Flor II. 122.11 (A.D. 253–4) πάρεχε τ ̣ [ὀψώνιον ?] κατ᾽ αὐτά [ρκειαν ?, ib. 242.8 (same date) ἵνα δυνηθῇς ἔχειν τὴν αὐτάρκιαν ἔστ᾽ ἂν τὰ σὰ ἐν ἑτοίμῳ γένηται . It is thus only concrete, ";a sufficiency"; : see next article. Vettius Valens (p. 289.32) has the noun, apparently with the meaning ";a competence.";
