SIBI-P1 Translation G683-04
you are pushing away from yourselves
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing action), middle voice (self-involved/reflexive), indicative mood (statement of fact), 2nd person plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present middle indicative, second person plural, denotes an ongoing action performed by the subjects with self-involvement. "Pushing away from yourselves" preserves the compound sense of ἀπό (away from) plus ὠθέω (to push) and reflects the middle voice’s reflexive nuance. |
