SIBI-P1 Translation G88-02
unceasingly
| Morphological Notes | Adverb (Gr,D); derived from the adjective ἀδιάλειπτος; functions as an indeclinable adverb meaning "in an unceasing manner." |
| Rendering Rationale | The adverbial form ἀδιαλείπτως derives from "not pausing" and denotes action carried on without interruption. "Unceasingly" preserves the root idea of no gaps or pauses and reflects its adverbial force. |

unceasing

| Rationale | Adjusted from 'unceasingly' (adverb) to 'unceasing' (adjective) to agree with 'pain' (ὀδύνη) rather than modify an action, fitting the noun usage in Greek. |
