SIBI-P1 G2813-01
they were stealing
| Morphological Notes | Gr,V,IAA3,,P = Verb; Imperfect tense (past ongoing); Active voice; Indicative mood; 3rd person plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is rendered "they were stealing" to reflect the imperfect tense (past ongoing action), active voice, indicative mood, and third person plural form. This preserves the root sense of κλέπτω as the act of taking by stealth while accurately conveying the continuous or repeated nature of the action in past time. |
