SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
giving
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'those giving' is unnecessarily expanded; in Greek, the participle stands for action by the subject. 'Giving' preserves form and context, and is more idiomatic for participles as modifying the implied subject. |
