SIBI-P1 G4160-52
they will make
| Morphological Notes | Verb; future active indicative; 3rd person plural (Gr,V,IFA3,,P,) — denotes a simple future action performed by "they." |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb ποιέω fundamentally means "to make" or "to do," expressing active production or performance. The form ποιήσουσιν is future active indicative, third person plural, so "they will make" preserves the forward-looking action (future), the active voice, and the plural subject. |
