they led down
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/completed past), active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active indicative, 3rd person plural, denotes a completed action performed by "they." "Led down" preserves the directional force of κατά (down) combined with ἄγω (to lead), maintaining the core sense of guiding from a higher to a lower place. |
