SIBI-P1 G4395-14

Speak-forth as a prophet!

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist active imperative, 2nd person singular (MAA2,S). The aorist imperative conveys a single, decisive command rather than ongoing action; active voice indicates the subject performs the action.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "Speak-forth as a prophet!" preserves the root sense of προφητεύω (to speak forth as a προφήτης, a prophet) while making explicit the verbal action. The aorist active imperative, second person singular, is reflected as a direct, decisive command addressed to one person.
