SIBI-P1 Translation G2334-12
they will observe attentively
| Morphological Notes | Verb; future tense, active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person plural (they will actively perform the action). |
| Rendering Rationale | The future active indicative third plural denotes a simple future action performed by them. "Observe attentively" preserves the root sense of engaged, evaluative watching inherent in θεωρέω rather than mere casual seeing. |
