SIBI-P1 G4100-39
they are trusting / to the trusting (ones)
| Morphological Notes | Verb from πιστεύω. Forms attested: (1) Present Active Indicative, 3rd Person Plural — ongoing action performed by "they"; (2) Present Active Participle, Dative Masculine Plural — "to/for the trusting ones," functioning substantivally in the dative case. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb πιστεύω derives from πίστις (faith, trust) and fundamentally means to place trust or confidence in someone or something. The present active indicative, 3rd person plural form is rendered "they are trusting" to reflect ongoing action in the present tense. The present active participle, dative masculine plural form is rendered "to the trusting (ones)" to preserve its participial nature, masculine plural gender, and dative case function. |
