πορεύου

poreúomai

go

To proceed or travel from one place to another, to go; in extended or figurative contexts, to carry on a course of action, conduct one’s life, or, less commonly, to depart (often meaning to die, in euphemism). The primary meaning is related to physical movement or journey, but in Koine Greek the verb frequently acquires a metaphorical sense of living or behaving in a certain way, or of embarking on a particular course (of conduct or fate).

SIBI-P1 Translation G4198-20

go on your way

Morphological NotesVerb; present tense (ongoing/continuous), middle voice (self-involving), imperative mood (command), 2nd person singular.
Rendering RationaleThe present middle imperative, second person singular, commands the hearer to undertake or continue a journey. The middle voice reflects personal involvement or self-directed movement, hence "go on your way" preserves both motion and reflexive nuance.
