SIBI-P1 G4337-03
You all, keep holding yourselves toward
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present middle/passive imperative, 2nd person plural (Gr,V,MPA2,,P,). Present tense indicates ongoing action; imperative mood expresses command; middle voice conveys reflexive/self-involving force; plural addresses multiple hearers. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb προσέχω combines πρός (toward) and ἔχω (to hold), literally meaning "to hold toward." The present imperative calls for ongoing or continual action, and the middle voice reflects self-involvement or reflexive engagement. "Keep holding yourselves toward" preserves the root imagery and expresses the continuous, second-person plural command. |
