SIBI-P1 Translation G4105-13
we are leading astray
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing action), active voice (subject performs the action), indicative mood (statement of fact), first person plural (we). |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active indicative, first person plural, expresses an ongoing action performed by "we." The active voice preserves the causative force of the root—causing others to wander or deviate from the proper path or truth. |
