SIBI-P1 G3985-18

the one being-tested/tried

Morphological NotesVerb, present passive participle, nominative masculine singular (Gr,V,PPP,NMS). Indicates an ongoing action being received by a masculine singular subject functioning substantivally ("the one...").
Rendering RationaleThe participial form denotes an ongoing state of undergoing testing. Rendering it as "the one being-tested/tried" preserves the root sense of peirazō as testing or proving, while reflecting the present tense (ongoing), passive voice (receiving the action), participle form, and nominative masculine singular grammatical features.
