Present
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/decisive action), active voice, imperative mood, 2nd person plural — a command addressed to multiple hearers. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active imperative, 2nd person plural, issues a decisive command to cause something or someone to stand beside or before another. "Present" preserves the core idea of setting beside or bringing forward in a direct imperative form. |
