ὑμᾶς
sý
you
Second person singular personal pronoun; used to directly address one person as 'you.' The primary sense is as a nominative pronoun, the person spoken to. Depending on context, it can have an emphatic or non-emphatic force, indicating either the simple presence of the addressee or stressing the person in contrast or focus. As with all Greek personal pronouns, it is frequently omitted for non-emphatic, subject functions, since the verb conjugation already identifies the person.
