SIBI-P1 Translation G2564-47

you may be called

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist tense (simple/completed aspect), passive voice, subjunctive mood, 2nd person singular.
Rendering RationaleThe aorist passive subjunctive, second person singular, expresses a simple event viewed as a whole in passive voice with subjunctive force. "You may be called" preserves the passive action and the potential/contingent sense of the subjunctive while retaining the root idea of calling or summoning.
