SIBI-P1 G5426-06
be minding (yourselves) / you were minding
| Morphological Notes | Verb, either present middle/passive imperative, 2nd person plural (continuous command with reflexive or self-involving force), or imperfect active indicative, 2nd person plural (past ongoing action). |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root idea of exercising the mind or setting one’s mindset (from φρήν, “mind”). "Be minding (yourselves)" reflects the present middle/passive imperative, second person plural—an ongoing command with reflexive nuance—while "you were minding" reflects the imperfect active indicative, second person plural, indicating past continuous mental disposition. |
