σιωπήσῃ

siopese

he should be quiet

from (silence, i.e. a hush; properly, muteness, i.e. involuntary stillness, or inability to speak; and thus differing from σιγή, which is rather a voluntary refusal or indisposition to speak, although the terms are often used synonymously); to be dumb (but not deaf also, like 2974 properly); figuratively, to be calm (as quiet water):--dumb, (hold) peace.

SIBI-P1 G4623-04

he might fall silent

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist tense (simple/completed aspect), active voice, subjunctive mood, 3rd person singular. The aorist views the action as a whole occurrence; the subjunctive expresses potentiality, purpose, or contingency.
Rendering RationaleThe verb σιωπάω denotes becoming silent or being rendered mute, often with the sense of stillness rather than deliberate restraint. The aorist active subjunctive, third person singular (SAA3S), conveys a simple, complete act viewed as a whole and expresses possibility or purpose, hence "he might fall silent," preserving both the root meaning and the subjunctive force.
