SIBI-P1 Translation G1760-01
you are pondering inwardly
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present tense, middle voice, indicative mood, 2nd person plural (Gr,V,IPM2,,P,) — ongoing action performed with inward/self-involved focus by "you" (plural). |
| Rendering Rationale | The present tense conveys ongoing action, and the middle voice reflects an inward, self-involved mental process. "Pondering inwardly" captures the root sense of turning thoughts within (ἐν + θυμός) while preserving the second person plural indicative form. |
