SIBI-P1 Translation G4043-26
they are walking about
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing action), active voice, indicative mood, third person plural — "they are walking/about going." |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active indicative, third person plural, expresses ongoing action performed by "they." "Are walking about" preserves the root sense of moving around (περί + πατέω) while allowing for its broader sense of active conduct. |
